User(s) can reproduce this bug

When I comment a section with multiple line comments, when uncommenting, it gives unexpected and not desired result. An example:

My code:

/* title */
int foo();

Comment selection:

///* title */
//int foo();

Uncomment selection (see the missing slash):
*title */
int foo();

You can clearly see it gives differen result than you started with.

Visual Studio 2012
