The minimal example would be (with point before "foo", the "xx)"
part gets indented too):

foo (bar
 xx)

I'm not sure if anyone relies on that (I broke it in 26.1 and nobody
reported it).  The main motivating example is

#s(foo
bar)

which is due to forward-sexp not handling #s correctly for Emacs Lisp
(it's treated as a separate sexp rather than as a whole record
expression).

Hmm, I'm a bit confused here.  I thought indent-sexp is only good for
Lisp-based languages.  Do lisp-indent-calc-next/calculate-lisp-indent
give usable results for prolog or ruby??
