Ah, I missed it then, thanks.

You're welcome. You fixed the example I gave, but as it turns out my
example was too minimal. Hopefully this is better: uncommenting the
commented line in the following will signal a jit-lock error

int main(void) {
  for(;;) {
    /* return 0; */
  }
}

Repeating M-; on that line, eventually I get `return 0;` uncommented but
fontified as a comment.
