Comment delimiter (was: Entity replacement)

[Ingo Macherius]

In this list the terminals for ending and beginning comments are mentioned
as "<--*" and "*-->" several times, e.g. in the one this reply is based on:

> 1) PEs aren't supposed to be recognized inside comments (nothing is except the
> terminal '*-->'), so they aren't supposed to be expanded.

In both WD-XML drafts a comment is declared without the "*" star, so are
the examples given (Clause [17] (9700331) and [21] (961114)).
Could someone of the knowing kind explicitly confirm the draft ?
