Where can I find the description of that "long > union highlighting" bug, please? I think Stefan means bug #19669. "Long enums" used to be a problem for fontification when a jit-lock 500-byte chunk started in the middle of the braces, when the lack of syntactic context would cause that chunk not to be fontified. #19669 had things in common with that old state. -- Alan Mackenzie (Nuremberg, Germany).
