Solved it. FYI. I had been following the tutorial at https://platform.netbeans.org/tutorials/nbm-javacc-lexer.html and the tutorial code doesn't override the getCommentHandler() method of the LanguageRegistration class which extended DefaultLanguageConfig. Adding a suitable CommentHandler.DefaultCommentHandler fixed the issue.
