FIXED! Now I can disable the Themes->Settings->Markup: Raw setting and it stays disabled. I had been syncing my Bundles with my laptop via Dropbox and symlinks. I unravelled all that and things are “normal” again. I guess TextMate is not really designed to be synced. Or at least not the way I was doing it. Lesson learned.
Infininight, in the IRC, says it’s because Dropbox "breaks the fs_events TM uses to detect bundle changes."
