I doubt the error is in jit-lock, because the assumptions made by
jit-lock.el are almost identical to the ones made by the non-jit-lock
code.  Jit-lock relies more heavily on some of those assumptions, tho,
so it's probably more difficult to reproduce without jit-lock, but
reproducing it without jit-lock might be the best way to debug
the problem.
