The patch below uses the high contrast "yellow" color for
font-lock-comment-face on low color terminals using a dark background
color.
Yellow is not used by many other font-lock faces on such terminals.

This will enable us to eliminate the need for the
font-lock-comment-delimiter-face. (which the patch does not do, it just
makes it identical to font-lock-comment-face, it will be done in an
incremental patch).

That will make the delimiters the same colour as the comments.  Is that
what we want?

I've always disliked the addition of font-lock-comment-delimiter-face,
so yes, I do want that.
