I recently adopted yaml-mode, and I'm sorry it took so long for
someone to follow-up on your bug report.  When I updated the package I
chose to defer updating and applying your patch for three reasons.

1. A pleasant side-effect to transitioning to dh-elpa often solves
   this type of bug.
2. The Debian Emacsen team is currently working on a future transition
   to unflavoured emacs.
3. Admittedly I didn't want to do the work of updating your patch when
   #1 ought to solve this bug.

If it wouldn't be too much of a bother would you please confirm that
0.0.13-1 is good?  In the absence of a reply I plan to close this bug
at the end of July, and of course you would be welcome to reopen it if
the issue can still be triggered :-)

Thank you for taking the time to report this issue,
Sincerely,
Nicholas
