Description Oni 2010-05-28 14:40:22 UTC 
If I write this in gedit (as C code):

/** hello worlf */
/* hello worlf */

the wrong word 'worlf' isn't underlined in red in the first case (if the block comment begins with '/**').

This bug goes away if I set the snippet as C++ code (in that case both 'worlf' are correctly underlined).

OS: Ubuntu lucid
