Hi,

The file format I'm using supports both sql "--" and c++ "//" comments.
sql-mode provides the "--" comment, and handles quotes in this comment
style correctly.
I added the "//" comment style through the derived mode, but the c++
comment style does not handle the quotes correctly. I will try the
latest newcomment.el, but I suspect I'll need to modify the syntax
table as suggested by David Hansen below.
