Bug Description

Hi,

I installed annotate-mode from melpa (there is a one in the stable repo and one in the other, with either version, the bug occurrs), and used it:

M-x annotate-mode
C-c C-a foobar

This annotates the file.

When the emacs window is too small, I get following *Messages*:
---
Annotations loaded.
Fontifying block...(args-out-of-range foo 0 -6) [2 times]
Error during redisplay: (jit-lock-function 1) signaled (args-out-of-range "foo" 0 -6)
QuitError during redisplay: (jit-lock-function 1) signaled (args-out-of-range "foo" 0 -6)
Mark set
Error during redisplay: (jit-lock-function 1) signaled (args-out-of-range "foo" 0 -6)
QuitError during redisplay: (jit-lock-function 1) signaled (args-out-of-range "foo" 0 -6)
---

While this messages seem to originate outside of 'annotation-mode' on which page this bug is already filed, this isn't the bug I want to report, but this seems to be the prerequisite.

If I now wildly resize the emacs-window (trying to figure out what exactly triggers this and how to fix it), emacs freezes so that only kill -9 can shut it down. Usually this triggers not only a "killed" but a "segfault (core dumped)" on the terminal.

Thank you for your software

I just now built a emacs-26.1 on the machine I created this bugreport on, and it seems, that 26.1 doesn't crash.
