Hello Alan. Thanks for looking into this bug!

I've applied the patch and tried the recipe I provided, and it works fine.
However, when I visit editfns.c and search for EXTRA_CONTEXT_FIELDS,
like I said in my report, I see the following problem with this variables:
struct buffer *buffer_a;
struct buffer *buffer_b;
unsigned char *deletions;
unsigned char *insertions;
All but deletions have face font-lock-variable-name-face.
I can't seem to come up with a simple recipe to reproduce the problem,
so I refer you to that part of editfns.c.
All the following steps, separately with emacs -Q (or you could kill the
buffer if you want)
1) C-x C-f editfns.c
C-s extra RET
I observe deletions without its correspondent face and if I type:
SPC DEL
deletions gets font-lock-variable-name-face face. However, if I
revert the buffer with M-x revert-buffer RET yes RET buffer_a, deletions
and the first 'buffer' lose their faces.
2) C-x C-f editfns.c
C-s deletions RET
I see that deletions has the right face. But
M-x revert-buffer
makes it lose it (but *buffer_a keeps its face).
3) C-x C-f editfns.c
C-s extra RET
deletions without font-lock-variable-name-face.
C-l C-l
M-x revert-buffer
deletions now has font-lock-variable-name-face.
That is all the testing I could do, sorry for not being able to come up
with a better recipe. Let me know if you see the same behavior, or what
else I could try.
Best regards,
Mauro.
