    lemacs 19.6. The bug happens no matter what the value of
    parse-sexp-ignore-comments.

    (defun foo () ; "
       )
    (progn "Bug: a C-M-U within this string goes to start of foo's def")

The convention in Emacs is that you have to slashify open-parens in
column 0, if you don't want them to be considered the beginning of a
defun.
