My mistake on the "submission".  I sent the email to sourceforge.  But I am glad the bug has been fixed.

Thanks!  I've committed the patch to the emacs-27 branch at savannah,
from where it should reach the master branch in a few days, and to stand
alone CC Mode and XEmacs.  I'm closing the bug with this post.

By submitted, do you mean to bug-gnu-emacs@gnu.org?  If so, the "needs
moderation" sounds very strange indeed.  I don't know why this has
happened, and I didn't see your new bug last time I looked at the online
list (this morning, European time).  Can I suggest you try submitting it
again?

This bug seems already to be fixed in the upcoming Emacs 28.1 and the
head of the standalone CC Mode.  The bug is present in Emacs 27.2.  With
a bit of bisection, I should be able to find the patch which fixed it.
With any luck, I'll be able to send you a patch for Emacs 27.2.
