COMMENTS ARE NOT EXCLUDED WHEN MT SKIPS RULES

I believe that MT is counting comment lines as actual lines of code when it encounters "skip next rule" or "skip next 2 rules".
So for example:

This works:
if n8>4 then skip next 2 rules
ir=1
exit rules, execute Outgoing Action

more code with conditionals
etc




This fails:
if n8>4 then skip next 2 rules
//ir IS USED TO DIRECT FADE TO GREY WHEN
//LAST CLIP WAS IN ONE OF FIRST FOUR TRACKS
ir=1
exit rules, execute Outgoing Action

more code with conditionals
etc




Instead of skipping the two lines:
******************************
ir=1
exit rules, execute Outgoing Action
******************************

and then proceeding with the next conditionals, MT seems to be counting the two comments as valid code, and then executes
ir=1
exit rules, execute Outgoing Action
......with unwanted results.

I'm surprised because I seem to remember such comments not causing this error in my code up until today. But, sure enough, I do get this type of error.

Of course I can get rid of the problem by moving the comments out of the way, but it's nice to have them right there.

ahh, good catch! we'll try to fix it in the next version.
