Subject: 24.4; smie mis-highlights unmatchable keywords
Date: Mon, 17 Nov 2014 11:28:38 +0000

emacs -Q
M-x load-file
~/.opam/4.02.1/share/tuareg/tuareg.el
M-x tuareg-mode
M-x show-paren-mode
let f () =
  let x = 0 in
  ()
C-u 17 C-b

This starts a fresh emacs, loads the tuareg mode, enables
show-paren-mode, enters some ocaml code, and puts the point on a 'let'
keyword.  This 'let' is highlighted in 'show-paren-mismatch-face'.  As
there is no way for this 'let' to be matched (as far as smie is
concerned) this 'let' should not be highlighted.

(This bug report unfortunately got no response at the time.)

This was six years ago.  Is this still an issue in more recent versions
of Emacs?

Thanks, yes, it still behaves the same way. I have just redone the repro with 27.1:

emacs -nw -Q
M-x load-file
.emacs.d/elpa/tuareg-20200518.1820/tuareg-opam.el
M-x load-file
.emacs.d/elpa/tuareg-20200518.1820/tuareg.el
M-x tuareg-mode
M-x show-paren-mode
let f () =
 let x = 0 in
 ()
C-u 17 C-b


In case it is useful, here is the current output from report-emacs-bug:

Thanks for checking.  Hopefully somebody with more knowledge about smie
will take a look at this.
