"prepend" font-lock keyword entries for sh-mode don't render as they
are intended
when I open an sh-mode buffer for the first time.

If I close the buffer and open it again, everything works fine.

Example:
("##+ \\(.+\\)$" 1 some-face prepend)
won't render correctly.

Please provide a _complete_ example starting from emacs -Q, and state
what version of Emacs you are using.

The following works for me in 22.3, 23.1, 23.2, emacs-23 branch, and trunk:

cat 1.el:

(font-lock-add-keywords 'sh-mode
                        '(("##+ \\(.+\\)$" 1 'underline prepend)))

cat foo.sh:

# single
## double


emacs -Q -l ./1.el ./foo.sh 

"double" is underlined and red.

Since I cannot reproduce this and no further information has been
provided, I am closing this.

Please do respond if you have a recipe for reproducing it.

You can reply any time in the next 28 days (or indeed after that if
you follow the instructions about unarchiving bugs.)
