 This function moves point forward across @var{count} complete comments
 (that is, including the starting delimiter and the terminating
-delimiter if any).  It moves backward if @var{count} is negative.  If

-expecting the beginning of one.  The function also stops immediately
-after moving over the specified number of complete comments.
