So that gives me (after recompiling with -O0 -g3 :-) )

Breakpoint 4, Freplace_match (newtext=9563044, fixedcase=0, literal=0, string=0, subexp=0) at search.c:2710
2710	    error ("Match data clobbered by buffer modification hooks");

org-element--cache-after-change is:

(defun org-element--cache-after-change (beg end pre)
  "Update buffer modifications for current buffer.
BEG and END are the beginning and end of the range of changed
text, and the length in bytes of the pre-change text replaced by
that range.  See `after-change-functions' for more information."
  (when (org-element--cache-active-p)
    (org-with-wide-buffer
     (goto-char beg)
     (beginning-of-line)
     (save-match-data
       (let ((top (point))
	     (bottom (save-excursion (goto-char end) (line-end-position))))
	 ;; Determine if modified area needs to be extended, according
	 ;; to both previous and current state.  We make a special
	 ;; case for headline editing: if a headline is modified but
	 ;; not removed, do not extend.
	 (when (case org-element--cache-change-warning
		 ((t) t)
		 (headline
		  (not (and (org-with-limited-levels (org-at-heading-p))
			    (= (line-end-position) bottom))))
		 (otherwise
		  (let ((case-fold-search t))
		    (re-search-forward
		     org-element--cache-sensitive-re bottom t))))
	   ;; Effectively extend modified area.
	   (org-with-limited-levels
	    (setq top (progn (goto-char top)
			     (when (outline-previous-heading) (forward-line))
			     (point)))
	    (setq bottom (progn (goto-char bottom)
				(if (outline-next-heading) (1- (point))
				  (point))))))
	 ;; Store synchronization request.
	 (let ((offset (- end beg pre)))
	   (org-element--cache-submit-request top (- bottom offset) offset)))))
    ;; Activate a timer to process the request during idle time.
    (org-element--cache-set-timer (current-buffer))))

which already does save-match-data. If I globally disable the org
element cache by (setq org-element-use-cache nil) the issue
disappears, so now I'm confused as to what's going on.
