Actually, I don't understand how this (or any other redisplay) code
can _ever_ be allowed to blindly change PT like that.  

I suggest we revert that change and find some other way to fix the
problem (in yes-or-no-p IIUC) it was supposed to fix.

If yes-or-no-p requires PT to be at the end of the prompt, it should
put it there explicitly!
