Update: The problem goes away when I revert the following change.

--8<---------------cut here---------------start------------->8---
2006-08-01  Stefan Monnier  <address@hidden>

        * font-core.el (font-lock-extend-region-function)
        (font-lock-extend-region): Move to font-lock.el.

        * font-lock.el (font-lock-extend-region-function)
        (font-lock-extend-region): Move from font-core.el.  Simplify.

        * jit-lock.el (jit-lock-fontify-now): Cause a second redisplay
        if needed.
        (jit-lock-start, jit-lock-end): New dynamic scoped vars.
        (jit-lock-after-change-extend-region-functions): New hook.
        (jit-lock-after-change): Use it instead of hard-coding font-lock code.

        * font-lock.el (font-lock-extend-jit-lock-region-after-change): New fun.
        (font-lock-turn-on-thing-lock): Use it.

        * longlines.el (longlines-show-region): Make it work on read-only
        buffers as well.
