    This is still not enough when there are multiple matches on the same line
    close to each other.  Since we delete some text during fontification
    font-lock-fontify-keywords-region will skip over some of the following
    text when it readjusts point.

Is it possible to adjust the position at which
font-lock-fontify-keywords-region will set point, to compensate for
the deletion?  Could the code use a marker to maintain that position?
Then it would be relocated automatically.
