Ess stata-mode 5.14 in Emacs 23.3.1 incorrectly tabs the line following a
multiline-style comment. It seems to interpret the trailing "/" of the
multiline comment as a line continuation.

Example:
/* this is a comment */
  gen foo = 1

The second line is tabbed; it should not be.

Lisp code to correct the problem can be found at the following web site,
where I posted this bug:
http://stackoverflow.com/questions/8069351/fix-undesirable-emacs-tabbing-behavior-in-ess-stata

However, the behavior should be corrected in a future version of ESS.

Paul
