Hello.

I found 2 bugs with nested comments. Not sure about second but first indeed.

So the first one:

 
 module core;
 
 /+
 char[] string = "/+";
 +/
 
 int main(char[][] args)
 {
 	return 0;
 }

D:\proj\dtest>dmd core.d
core.d(12): unterminated /+ +/ comment

And second is:

 
 module core;
 
 /+
 int[] x = 5; // comment with /+ in it
 +/
 
 int main(char[][] args)
 {
 	return 0;
 }

Compiloation gives exactly same result.

No bugs at all:

| This means that embedded strings and comments do not prevent
| recognition of comment openings and closings

The first comment token appearing in normal source code determines 
the type of the comment and that of the the following source code 
that belongs to the type determined as above is considered to control 
the state of the comment.

No, you are not. I think the knowledge of the many failures software 
professionals make, do also make them for errors the most tolerant 
professional group.
