More precisely, the first ~500 bytes, which consist entirely of comments
and preprocessor directives doesn't get fontified at all.

Thanks.  The fact that it's ~500 bytes which don't get fontified suggest
that something is interfering with the first jit-lock chunk.  I'll be
looking into it.  Give me a bit of time.
