>>From what I understand, font-lock-beginning-of-syntax-function is
initialized from font-lock-defaults.  You can either specify nil or a
function name.  If you specify nil, Font Lock uses the beginning of
the buffer.  If you specify a function, Font Lock uses that function.
How do you make Font Lock use the function in the variable
syntax-begin-function?
