Build Identifier: M20080911-1700

Auto format removes white spaces between C-style comments:
/*comment1*/ /*comment2*/
becomes
/*comment1*//*comment2*/
which is detected as a 'nested comment' by some code checking tools.

Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1.Add the comment /*comment1*/ /*comment2*/ in the code
2.Press Strg+Shift+F for auto-format
3.The white space between the comments is removed

Just to be sure, what files are you editing? C? Java? Something else?
