Fontification issue with underscore bold followed by italic

[denisw]

When using underscores marking a word as bold and, later on the same line, another word as italic, like this:

__ONE__ TWO _THREE_

then the text between the bold and italic text is errornously fontified as italic.

Expected Behavior

In the above example, only "THREE" should be displayed in italics.

Actual Behavior

Both "TWO" and "THREE" are displayed in italics. For other combinations of bold / italics forms, all is well.

Steps to Reproduce

In a markdown-mode buffer, type __ONE__ TWO _THREE_.
