This bug report will be sent to the Free Software Foundation,
not to your local site managers!
Please write in English if possible, because the Emacs maintainers
usually do not have translators to read other languages for them.

Your bug report will be posted to the address@hidden mailing
list.

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

Action:
Load the attached file using 'C-x C-f mpcoloring.mp RET'.

Symptom:
The double quote inside btex .. etex is identified as a MetaPost string
boundary where it shouldn't. All subsequent text until the end of the
file is colored as belonging to a string where, in fact, there is no
string at all. (The "| is defined in package babel to break potential
ligatures similar to \/.)

Expected behavior:
Characters inside btex/verbatimtex .. etex should be colored according
to tex file rules.

Thanks,
Stephan Hennig
