+(ert-deftest test-for-issue-36-syntax-corrupted-state ()
+  "This is a test for a issue #36, which involved emacs's
+internal state getting corrupted when actions were done in a
+specific sequence.  The test seems arbitrary, and is, but it was
+not clear how to narrow it down further.
+
+The cause of the bug was code that used to set
+`syntax-begin-function' to `beginning-of-defun', which doesn't
+actually fulfill the expectations--`syntax-begin-function' is
+supposed to back out of all parens, but `beginning-of-defun'
+could leave it inside parens if a fn appears inside them.
+
+Having said that, as I write this I don't understand fully what
+internal state was corruped and how.  There wasn't an obvious
+pattern to what did and did not trip it."
+  
+  ;; When bug #36 was present, the following test would pass, but running it
+  ;; caused some unknown emacs state to be corrupted such that the following
+  ;; test failed.  Both the "blank_line" and "indented_closing_brace" functions
