This bug report will be sent to the Free Software Foundation,
not to your local site managers!
Please write in English, because the Emacs maintainers do not have
translators to read other languages for them.
Your bug report will be posted to the bug-gnu-emacs@gnu.org mailing list,
and to the gnu.emacs.bug news group.
In GNU Emacs 21.3.1 (i386-pc-solaris2.7, X toolkit)

Please describe exactly what actions triggered the bug
and the precise symptoms of the bug:
emacs-21.3.1 -q --no-site-file
M-<
C-e
M-: (let ((lbp (line-beginning-position))) (overlay-put (make-overlay lbp lbp)
'display '(space :align-to 4)))
That creates an overlay spanning 0 characters at the beginning of the
*scratch* buffer, with the display property set to (space :align-to 4).
But the buffer display is not affected.
