> Example:
> 
> Open xdisp.c, navigate to the first line. Evaluate:
> 
> (load "jit-lock")
> (benchmark 1000 '(font-lock-ensure (line-beginning-position)
>                                    (line-end-position)))
> 
> => 0.66s
> 
> Which puts a dampener on the idea of syntax highlighting xref results in
> the open files.
> 
> With the patch below, the benchmark executes 100 times faster.
> OK to apply?
