In GNU Emacs 19.26.1 (sparc-sun-sunos4.1.3C, X toolkit) of Fri Sep  9 1994 on penelope

With

% emacs -q

edit a file called foo.p with the line:

This {is a} test.

Put point on the start of the comment and evaluate (forward-comment).
Point is left on the end of comment `}' character.

If you do something similar in a file called foo.c:

This /*is a*/ test.

then point is left after the end of comment `*/' characters.

If it's a comment-* variable problem, I can't find it.

Thanks, Simon.
