I see now.  It appears to be a bug in c-extend-after-change-region
(assigned to font-lock-extend-after-change-region-function) which
returns a region that extends past the end of the buffer.

Alan, can you take a look at it?  In the above recipe, it helps to do:
M-: (setq fnt-lock-support-mode nil debug-on-error t) RET and then
toggle font-lock-mode OFF and back ON before doing the C-w.
