That patch seems like TRT to me anyway.

What problem is c-standard-font-lock-fontify-region-function supposed to
solve? Someone changing the default value of
font-lock-fontify-region-function in between font-lock-mode-hook being
run and font-lock-fontify-region being called?
That shouldn't happen, only the buffer-local value should ever be
changed. It's not a user-variable.
(I actually think you could safely just call
font-lock-default-fontify-region .)
