 COMMENT-LIST is a list, whose entries are either a single
 character, a one or two character string or a cons pair.  If the
 entry is a character or a string, it is added to the mode's
-syntax table with `comment-start' syntax.  If the entry is a cons
-pair, the elements of the pair are considered to be
-`comment-start' and `comment-end' respectively.  (The latter
