[ Forwarded from http://bugs.debian.org/397945 ]

Similar to bug 9407, this JavaScript source starts with comments and is matched as  C source;
http://asurvey.net/ccsfagent/media/survey.js

Comment 1 Robert Kieffer 2007-08-16 13:25:29 UTC

Same problem here.  But with files starting with "/**"

Can we get this committed for next release?

* freedesktop.org.xml.in: Patch from Robert DaSilva
<spunit262@Yahoo.com> to make Javascript a sub-class of C sources
so as to avoid misdetection
* tests/list:
* tests/survey.js: Add test-case from the bug above
