$ cat p.pl && emacs p.pl

$tree->{kml}->{Document}->{description} =
q{由 <a href="mailto:millerliu <at> gmail.com">Miller Liu</a> 逐筆修正 <a href="http://www.ncc.gov.tw/">NCC</a> 電台坐標數據， $latest 止， 再由<a href="http://jidanni.org/">積丹尼</a>存放於<a href="http://radioscanningtw.wikia.com/wiki/台描:地圖">台描</a>。 "x"=停播。};

Now remove the final } . Now put it back.
See the "No matching parenthesis found"? BUG!
(Also bad that C-h e doesn't have that warning listed.)
Well other parts of emacs know about that }, because beyond it the color
is restored.

You didn't say what Emacs version is that.

I can see this in Emacs 24.5, but not in the development sources of
what will become Emacs 25.1.  So I guess the problem was already
solved.

EZ> You didn't say what Emacs version is that.

OK Debian "24.5+1-6+b1".
