No, I meant with lazy-highlight-buffer nil.  But again,
that was only with my own code.  I won't worry about
that now.

Dunno.  I'm not worried yet about any interaction between
them.  But if you want to think about that, good.

Ah!  Thanks for checking.  I'm glad to hear I made
a mistake patching.  Sorry for taking your time to
check it.

Thanks.  I'll take a look and get back to you.
