It works fine for me too in 21.1, which is the only one I've got
access to. I'll keep this bug around until I have a 21.4 to test it
in, but I suspect it's something in XEmacs and not CC Mode. Maybe the
backwards sexp matching gets confused by the comments. If a M-x
backward-sexp on the last or second-to-last '}' travels to the wrong
opening paren, then it certainly is an XEmacs bug.
