We did at one point!  Like I said it was repeatable.  I believe Larry can 
confirm.  Also any test case we could provide would be a little to large and 
require far to many dependencies to be a simple test case.  I like to think 
I'm a practical programmer meaning that if removing a comment allows the 
program to run then I remove the comment.   If there was some other cause 
like formatting or some other issue I really did not see it.  So for now I 
never use a comment immediately after def or class - only triple quotes.
