Nope, it's valid as-is. Note that comments do *not* produce tokens, but *can* separate tokens that would form a single token if they were adjacent without the comment.

That is, `foo /**/ bar` contains four tokens - a "foo" ident, a whitespace, a whitespace, and a "bar" ident. The two whitespace tokens match `ws*` together.
