No, I don't think so. When the comment-end marker is \n,
`forward-comment' will leave point at the beginning of the next line,
causing the whole filling code to be skipped. Even when tweaking the
predicate so that the code is run anyway, it doesn't fill the comment
properly. Was it ever intended to do so? I assumed from the comment
that you quoted that it wasn't.

Those kinds of comments seem to be handled well by the default
`fill-paragraph', though.
