No, I'm doing some corrections and additions at various places in that
document.  This includes jumping around a lot in the document, editing
here and there.  I cannot reproduce it.  Maybe it is only triggered
when I enter a specific macro argument or environment.  When the
problem appears, it doesn't go away until I disable font-lock or
restart the Emacs session.

I forgot to mention that I already noticed this several months ago
(IIRC back in December), but I didn't have time to debug it.  And
maybe it is triggered by the document.

I will test some revisions of `font-latex.el'.  Maybe I can identify a
specific change.  I don't know any details how font-lock works, so
further hints are very welcome.

Bye, Reiner.
