Comments with no space turn open parens into unmatched comments #121

Description

@whonore

Given an ML-like language with commentstring=(*%s*), taking the valid program:

(**)
val x = (
  1)

and selecting it all and commenting with gc gives:

(*(**)*)
(*val  x = (*)
(*  1)*)

The (*) on the second line is then treated as an unmatched open comment.

The cause of this bug is probably the same as in some past issues (#3, #29, #40, etc), but the fix might be simpler here since you'd just need to ensure that there's always a space between the last character in a line and the closing comment.
