After following the recipe literally, I could reproduce that thing, too.

Maybe this issue occurring depends on what exactly is replaced - symlink
targets.  In this case, (font-lock-ensure) does make a
difference.

Yesterday I had experimented with replacing in symlink names - in that
case, the whole buffer had been considered.


Michael.
