[Openmcl-devel] paren matching in the editor

Is anyone but me experiencing very odd paren matching in the editor?  What happens for me is that if I type, say

(defun foo ()
  (let ((x 1))
    +

with the cursor marked by "+", then typing closing parens highlights the closing paren itself, not the opening paren.  It stops highlighting them when there would be no corresponding opening paren.

In more complicated situations it seems to leave lots of little highlights over parens which are not related to what I'm currently editing.

I'm running the trunk (1.7-dev-r14556M, 64bit) on OSX 10.6.6: I think it was happening before the possibly slightly ill-advised 10.6.6 upgrade though.

It may be init file problems of some kind though I don't have anything very complicated I think.
