Note that the issue was also present with t (minibuffer message) or the
child-frame version.

The issue is hopefully fixed with 005efce764.  Please report back.

I now ensure the region is font-locked before taking the
buffer-substring(s).

I now set the overlay priority to (the very high) show-paren-priority
which seems to do the trick.

Bye,
