Hmm, now I changed simple.el like this:

                        (backward-char 1)))
                 (point)))))
+         (message "%s" newpos)
        (goto-char newpos)
        (if (and (> (point) newpos)
                 (eq (preceding-char) ?\n))

and recompiled it.  After that, the issue is not reproducible anymore at
all; neither with the uncompiled nor with compiled "simple" library.

Seems we won't find out anything useful by debugging on the Lisp level.
