Subject: bug#8566: 23.3; fails to do correct parenthesis matching in Autoconf mode

Emacs fails to do correct parenthesis matching in Autoconf mode.
For instance, test with M-x check-parens on a file containing:

AC_DEFUN([FOO],
[
case $host in
  *)
    foo ;;
esac
])

Note: I can't reproduce bug 4920. So, this is a different problem.

In GNU Emacs 23.3.1 (x86_64-pc-linux-gnu, GTK+ Version 2.24.4)
