1. This happens only in console mode (emacs -nw),
2. "emacs -nw -Q" is even worse - no single char of commented line is being 
highlighted ;)

BTW. Dan Nicolaescu clarified that this change has happened upstream.
He shown me useful tip.
After setting TERM variable to 'xterm-256color' normal highlighting is back. 
Unfortunately it does not work in Linux standard console.

PS. Is there a particular reason why TERM=xterm by default?
