It's probably bound to C-e in a local keymap. This is one area where
Emacs is hard to use; it is not easy to figure out which keymap a key
is bound in.

To see the binding in the global map, open a temp buffer in
fundamental mode (do C-x b temp). Now do C-h k C-%. You can also do
C-h k C-e, to see what that is (normally 'end-of-line).

If you don't get "match-paren", then your statement above was not
executed, or it was overridden by a later command in your .emacs.
