I found some problems at ends of comments.  The upshot is that
forw_comment must inform scan_sexps_forward, on a failed search, whether
the last character it scanned is still "syntactically live", or whether
that last character's syntax was "used up" in closing or opening a
comment.  On a successful search, that character's syntax is always
"used up" in closing the comment.

Would you like to see the patch again, or should I just commit it?
