[ESS-bugs] ess-mode 16.04 [elpa: 20160506.1327]; syntax highlighting wrong for commented out function definition

[Crouch, Michael (Nokia - IE)]

Hi, when I comment out function definitions the name of the function is still being highlighted as if it weren’t commented out. The minimum test case for this is a file with the single line:
# foo <- function
The word “foo” is appearing in blue instead of maroon.

Thanks,
