Comment 4 Roman Rakus 2012-07-09 13:40:23 UTC

OK, the reproducer is:
Write some C comments in C file, some kind of C-style coloring has to be enabled (just enough to start editing .c file)
Write initial comment:
/*

the vim will insert
 *
on the next line so it will looks like
/*
 *
end now hit the enter on the last line after the * and the vim will abort.
