This occurs with a nil setting of
`open-paren-in-column-0-is-defun-start'.  It was nil when I submitted
the original bug report.  (You might want to add this variable to the
c-submit-bug-report report.)

Apologies in advance for any hair loss.  :)

I tried it on a different machine with the same frame width (but
different frame height), and got the included output after 8 page-downs.
The last full line on the first page is:

   *    <li>the graph is bidirectional ("bidrectionalS" as the third template argument),</li>

I hope this differing output helps you track down the problem.
