I guess a _15 character_ test case is too much work to cut/paste? :)

Here 'tis:

Debugger entered--Lisp error: (search-failed "/\\*+ *\\|//+ *")
  re-search-forward("/\\*+ *\\|//+ *")
  fill-comment-paragraph(nil)
  fill-paragraph(nil)
  apply(fill-paragraph nil)
  c-mask-comment(t nil fill-paragraph nil)
  c-fill-paragraph(nil)
  call-interactively(c-fill-paragraph)

Thanks,
