Okay, I've made the error of combining '\' and '-' in the wrong
order, i.e. cat <<\-EOF...
I can confirm that when these special characters are used in the
correct sequence, emacs highlighting works as it should, and this bug
is mostly fixed (but not for the '+++' case, which I think is probably
also wrong anyway).
Sorry for the confusion, the bug can be considered closed as far as I
am concerned.
