I think this as well. You can fix this (but lose the automatic
insertion of these three-piece comments) by tweaking your 'comments'
option, probably in ~/.vim/after/ftplugin/c.vim, to remove the "s1:/
*,mb:*,ex:*/" that is included by default.
See :help 'comments' and :help format-comments for details.
