Ok the problem is the following commit which makes '$' move
to the last character of a line.

I actually wondered why there are so few calls to text_line_end and
didn't realize that this is used indirectly via a movement to
MOVE_LINE_END in many places.
Turns out both variants (moving to the new line at the end of a line
and to the character immediately before) are actually needed. This
is unfortunate and a bit ugly. I will have to give it some more
thought. In the mean time reverting the above mentioned commit
should fix those end of line issues.

Not really intentional but does it really matter? Why would you use
'a' on an empty line instead of 'i'?
