Thanks for taking time to check this. I should note that if I find a new
file (test.org) and yank the MWE, it is fontified correctly, but if I save
and kill the buffer and then find the file again, that is when the problem
occurs. In general, if I make a change that brings back the fontification,
it doesn't disappear again until freshly finding the file.
