As long as I can remember, cc-mode fontification has felt totally 
random, with actual faces depending on happenstance of previously-parsed 
types, luck of the draw in jit-lock chunking, and so on. Is there any 
*general* way that we can make fontification more robust and consistent?

For years and years now, I've been thinking we just need more 
deterministic parser-and-based mode support, and I still think that, but 
on a realistic level, that doesn't seem to be coming any time soon.

In the meantime, is there any general approach we might be able to use 
to get stuff like the attached to stop happening?
