This renders these pages pretty near useless.  Has this really gone unfixed for a month?  Can we change the pages to work around the problem?

I had to edit a few pages to remove the |function="syntax.JavaScript"| leaving only <pre> in order to get pages that were anywhere near usable.

As a quick fix I suggest doing a  sed to remove |function="syntax.\S+"| note affects syntax.cpp and probably syntax.anything as well.
