I don't know if this one's been caught yet. Ran into a wierd bug today that we couldn't figure out for 30 minutes.

If you just type in
/*

And compile, processing's compiler will be confused and will hang until it runs out of memory, giving an out of memory error. This can occur anywhere, when a block comment isn't closed off, giving no clue as to why this is happening.

This happens on both mac and pc.

Perhaps report an error to user about unclosd comment blocks?
