Sorry for late response. I confirmed what you reported (with fill-column
being 70) and had brief look at the relevant code. Unfortunately, the
code uses `save-excursion' to preserve the point, so it seems that
something very exceptional is happening. I'll try to figure out the
origin and fix it, but it can take a non trivial span of time. :-(
