This is the result of an erroneous regular expression.  I've just
installed a fix in CVS.  Thanks for the report.

The fix is confined to one location in the source code, adding a regexp
group to the value of `TeX-comment-start-regexp'.  Perhaps even better
would be to check all uses of the variable and adapt those.  Not sure.
