multiline comments starting on the same line as C preprocessor directives incorrectly coloured

[Peter Berry]

Binary package hint: vim

If a comment starts after (but on the same line as) a preprocessor directive but ends on another line, the part of it on the same line as the directive is coloured properly as a comment, but the rest of it is treated as normal code, with the result that the comment end token "*/" is flagged as an error. See attachment for an example.

This is discussed here, including patch, and appears to be fixed in the latest development version: http://groups.google.com/group/vim_dev/browse_thread/thread/14159630f99bffe0/368c4478f2fbf896?lnk=gst

I was not able to find a numbered vim patch for it, but that doesn't mean it doesn't exist :)

Fixed in Jaunty.
