bug#13244: cc-mode indentation fails depending on the phase of the moon

[Dietrich Epp]

This bug is weird.  I couldn't use auto-indentation in a certain file.  I tried 
restarting Emacs, behavior persists.  I upgraded to the latest version from 
Bzr, behavior persists.  I created a new account with no .emacs file and tried 
from there, behavior persists.  In comparison, indentation works correctly in 
the Emacs that in the current Debian Wheezy repository, which is 24.3.50.1.

Trying to automatically indent code inside the last function in the attached 
file fails.  It succeeds if I make almost any modification to code above the 
last function in the file -- it could be something as minor as adding a space 
on an empty line, but changing text in the comments seems to have no effect.  
Indentation works in every function but the last one (or any one you create 
below it).

The point at which indentation breaks is somewhere very close to the bottom of 
the file, I deleted code from the bottom of the file until I found the location 
where it breaks.
