CC Mode 5.31.4 (Java/l); Incorrent behaviour of uncomment-region in java-mode

[Guillaume S. <gui...@gm...>]

Hi,

I have a strange problem with uncomment-region eating my lines of
code. I can reproduce it deterministically by:

- starting emacs (with -Q)
- changing to java-mode (in the scratch buffer, for example)
- typing a two line c-style comment :

/* first line
second line */

- selecting all the buffer (or just the two lines)
- M-x uncomment region

I end up with the following text

first lin

(which is kinda scary, and has already caused me problems with lines
of code silentely disappearing, not causing a compile-time error but a
strange run-time behaviour instead. but I'm getting off-topic :-)

BTW, this is emacs 22.1.1 (CC Mode version 5.31.4), I get the same
behaviour with emacs 23.0.60.1 (CC Mode version 5.31.5), but it works
fine in emacs 21 (CC Mode version 5.28). I'm on ubuntu hardy.


Is this a known bug, or am I doing something wrong ?

Cheers,
-Guillaume
