Yes we have, but no potential problems comment-cache might cause have
been identified.  There's been generalized abstract philosophy on why
comment-cache is supposedly bad, but no real problems.  Nothing which
would cause Emacs to malfunction.

The fact is, comment-cache enables the proper functioning of
backward_comment.  The current master and the "alternative patch" are
both buggy.
