--- Comment #4 from Yves Lafon <ylafon@w3.org>  2009-02-05 17:37:18 ---
Hum... I see why.
COMMENT has been declared as a special token to be able to detect its presence
in @charset and report it.
In the case of the combinators, it generates a match because of this:
    ( (   <PLUS> { connector = '+' ; }
        | <GREATER> { connector = '>' ; }
        | <TILDE> { connector = '~' ; }
      ) ( <S> )* 
    | ( <S> )+ { connector = ' ' ; }
    )
Doing a/**/ > b will work, as the special token is there before a <S> is
parsed, however in the a /**/ > b case, the special token forces the match
(<S>+) and exist form the combinator matching part.
More in this soon (I hope).
