Bug: turn-on-font-lock breaks org-mode in recent emacs [7.9.3e (7.9.3e-3-gb07a9b @ /usr/share/emacs/24.3.50/lisp/org/)]

Bug: turn-on-font-lock breaks org-mode in recent emacs [7.9.3e (7.9.3e-3-gb07a9b @ /usr/share/emacs/24.3.50/lisp/org/)]

[Gijs Hillenius]

Until today, I had have these two (legacy) lines in my orgmode configuration

;; (global-font-lock-mode 1)                     ; for all buffers

which is already a default in emacs. This is also noted in the manual
http://orgmode.org/manual/Activation.html

However: it is still recommended in the Org-Mode Beginners Customization
Guide http://orgmode.org/worg/org-configs/org-customization-guide.html

The second line made a bit of a mess of my .org files with the
20130224 version of emacs-snapshot 

;; (add-hook 'org-mode-hook 'turn-on-font-lock)  ; org-mode buffers only

org files would still open, but show up as (imaginary example)
[[gnus:982.3334][link]] instead of the nice underlined clickable links.

You have a cached version of this page, `global-font-lock-mode' is not
mentioned in the current one (refresh the page to check.)

It is not anymore, fixed, thanks.

Mhh... you mean that, with `global-font-lock-mode' already turned on
and (add-hook 'org-mode-hook 'turn-on-font-lock), then the links are
not clickable anymore?  If so, please try ~$ emacs -Q test.org and
report the problem, together with your Emacs and Org versions.

Thanks!

Finally had some time to investigate further.

But!

The problem has gone away, with GNU Emacs 24.3.50.1 (i486-pc-linux-gnu,
GTK+ Version 3.4.2), the Debian Snapshot from 2013-02-26 

whether I have (add-hook 'org-mode-hook 'turn-on-font-lock) on or off
(;;), org files are fully functional.

Thanks for confirming the bug is gone, best regards,
