Hmm... comment-dwim doesn't care, AFAIK, it just inserts whatever you
have set for comment-start and comment-end, so it can definitely insert
/*...*/.  But I suspect you know that, so most likely I'm
misunderstanding something.

Ah, I see.  You can probably solve this by using \_< and \_> which match
symbol-boundaries instead of word-boundaries.
