A few months back my Emacs started to highlight bookmarks. I build and run from master, using the Homebrew emacs-head package. However even after I remove bookmarks, the highlighting remains. I typically use a lot of short lived bookmarks in my code to mark the area I am working on, and the end result is that I end up with lots of lines highlighted even though none of them are bookmarks any longer. I am not using any particular bookmarking packages either, just the regular stuff. I've also deleted all bookmarks from the bookmark list etc, but the highlighting remains in place. Any ideas on how I can clean any buffer with any highlight left overs from previous bookmarks?

bookmark-fontifyvariable to nil. Not that answers your question, but it's what you can do when you are really pissed.M-x report-emacs-bug(provide a recipe to repro the problem, starting withemacs -Q).emacs -Qas well, and it has the same behaviour straight out of the box, so reproducing is as simple as setting then trying to get rid of the bookmark highlighted line.
