Actually, in theory after-change-functions should catch all cases
whereas post-command-hook might miss some (i.e. chars inserted not
while running a command, e.g. from a process filter).

So while your new code probably works fine in practice (and is a good
workaround for now) , I think the original code is "more correct" and we
should try and figure out why it didn't work: how come
after-change-functions is not run (or not correctly) by call-process?
