I'm not sure what you mean by a "fix".  This is an Emacs issue, and it
was there since... I don't know, always.  Moreover, I don't think it's a
bug; it's just how Emacs finds a beginning of the top-level sexp – it
"sees" a leading parenthesis on a line and it considers it to be a
beginning of the sexp.
