That was a mistake - the second anchor point is needed on class-open
lines, not topmost-intro-cont ones.

I've coded up this patch, which I include below.  Actually, only the last
two smallish hunks of the patch are new, the rest is what you've seen
before, so it will be necessary to start from a clean copy of
cc-engine.el again.

The syntactical context of the HERE line (the opening brace of that
class) is now something like:

    ((class-open 76 107))

, where 76 is the position of the template keyword and 107 that of the
class keyword.  When there's no template, both of these anchor points are
the same.  Actually, that's not quite accurate: the 107 is the point
after the indentation of the line that class is on; it just seemed better
that way.

So, again, please let me know how you get on with this patch.  Is the
extra anchor point sufficient to write an alignment function to get the
indentation you want?

They still need amending.  On running the test suite, there were 81 files
where the new class-open syntactic symbol was different from the recorded
old symbol.  So I've got 81 files to regenerate.  Fortunately, I can do
this with a script, even if it will take me a couple of hours to write
the script.

Thank you indeed!  Have fun with the patch.
