overzealous file link creation

[Dan Davison <davison@stats.ox.ac.uk>]

Recently I've been randomly losing the string 'file' from all sorts of
documents. Up until now I had no explanation. It's not the sort of
question one wants to ask on public mailing lists.

OK, so if you call org-cycle "in the vicinity" of a word that starts
with the string 'file', then it eats up 'file' and prompts for link
insertion. This is true in buffers that are not in org-mode or
orgstruct*-mode. (I call org-cycle the whole time in order to use
outline-minor-mode, but o-m-m doesn't have to be turned on to cause
this.)

Try putting the following fragment into python-mode, and getting rid of
the asterisks. Then org-cycle issued with point at any of the asterisked
locations eats the string 'file' and prompts for a link.

--8<---------------cut here---------------start------------->8---
def f(filepath):
    print(
        *filepath*)*
*
*def g(arg):
    return arg
--8<---------------cut here---------------end--------------->8---

This is with latest git.
