In this font lock function the match data is set properly only if
(match-data) is called afterwards. Anyone knows why calling match-data
after set-match-data is necessary here? Emacs 22.
(defun ipa-font-lock-pos-info (limit)
(re-search-forward "^(")
(beginning-of-line)
(let ((sexp-start (point-marker))
sexp-end colon-end)
(forward-sexp)
(setq sexp-end (point-marker))
(forward-char)
(setq colon-end (point-marker))
(set-match-data (list sexp-start ;; whole
colon-end
sexp-start ;; sexp
sexp-end
sexp-end ;; colon
colon-end)))
(match-data))

Returning non nil should be sufficient but this function looks flawed to
my in another way. Try
(when (re-search-forward "^(" limit t)
;; ...
t)

I overlooked I should have returned nil. Thanks.

Yep, that's more correct. Thanks again.
