What I see here is that the moment 'main' becomes a complete C symbol,
like if I type a ';' or a '(' after yanking it, "main" becomes
highlighted exactly as expected. So maybe this is a feature?
I do see that Emacs 24.5 highlighted "main" as soon as it was yanked,
so this is at least a change in behavior.
