I made two commits within a couple of hours. Have you picked up the latest
version of descr-text.el (1.48)?

Yes, it certainly seemed to work when I tested it too.  However, I can see
Stefan's point that it would be more consistent to make describe-char work
like the other cases.  If my latest patch is still buggy, then I think we
should fix that.
