Evaluate (forward-comment -17). It stops inside the preceding comment, between the first and second "/". Perhaps this is fixed now; I've reported comment skipping bugs like this earlier, at least. (Haven't got the cvs version running, so I haven't checked.) /... blah blah .../ I gleefully ignore this bullshit and resend it anyway.
