Didn't I send something for that long ago? I am not sure anymore.

I am not even sure I understand the code. Is it just a simple change
in face_at_buffer_position in xfaces.c that is needed? Faces are
merged there and merging the faces for overlays with negative
priorities first seems to be what is needed.

However to do that I need Qpriority in xfaces.c. It is however defined
in buffer.c. How should that be handled?
