Looks like it's patch 7.4.362:
Problem: When matchaddpos() uses a length smaller than the number of
bytes
in the (last) character the highlight continues until the end of
the line.
Solution: Change condition from equal to larger-or-equal.
Files: src/screen.c
It's a very small change but apparently problematic. Can it be reverted or
rethought?
