This is a problem with Scintilla, the editing component that Geany uses and which does the highlighting. The same problem occurs in Scite the Scintilla reference editor. Scintilla is a separate project. Please report this at [its bugtracker](https://sourceforge.net/p/scintilla/bugs/) and report the bug number back here for tracking.
