Please describe exactly what actions triggered the bug
and the precise symptoms of the bug:

I sent a message to gnu.emacs.help but received no answer.

For a reason to do with debugging my C++ code, I need to use the
following fontification code:

(add-hook 'font-lock-mode-hook 'my-special-font-lock-mode-hook)

(make-face 'my-face-cc-illegal-type)
(set-face-background 'my-face-cc-illegal-type "#0ff")
(set-face-foreground 'my-face-cc-illegal-type "#f00")

(defun my-special-font-lock-mode-hook ()
 (font-lock-add-keywords
  'c++-mode
  '(
    ("\\<[A-Z]+[a-z][a-zA-Z0-9_]*\\>" 0 'my-face-cc-illegal-type t)
    )
  nil
  ))

The trouble is that it also fontifies strings and comments in the face
my-face-cc-illegal-type, something that I don't want fontified.

Please help me to get the fontification correct!
