That's because current-column returned an incorrect value when display
strings are used.  In the "tmp" buffer, go to the first line, move
cursor to the 'y' character, and type "C-x =" -- you will see that
Emacs thinks this is column 1, not 2.

I've now fixed current-column in this case (on the master branch), so
the above snippet now behaves as expected.
