Thank you for suggestion. I found a function for the
purpose: fix_overlays_in_range. I put it inside
`fix_overlays_before'. Instead I put it to the upper
level function.

BTW, how do you think changing function names:

fix_overlays_in_range => fix_start_end_in_overlays
fix_overlays_before   => fix_order_of_overlays_in_buffer

Both functions fix orders. However the scope(target?) of order
is different; fix_overlays_in_range fixes the order inside
an overlay and fix_overlays_before fixed the order insdie
buffer's overlay list. The function names don't show the
difference of scope.
