I have a gvim 7.0 (win32 with +comments) that seems to be ignoring the "set comments" line in my .vimrc file. I can submit the entire .vimrc file if desired but the relevant line is:

set comments=s:/**,mb:*,ex:*/

What I get is this (vim default?):

/*
**
**
*/

and what I expect is this (phpdoc standard syntax):

/**
*
*
*/

This seems to indicate that vim was compiled without +comments but according to :version (posted below), this directive was included. This is an unmodified gvim binary as downloaded very recently from vim.org.

I doubt that this is a bug, but I don't see what else could be causing this.

Thanks for any help!
