Hi Leo,
I have now applied this patch - hopefully it will do the right thing.
Thank you for your persistence in trying to fix this old and super-
annoying
bug.

Hello Carsten,
Setting a comment starter without a corresponding comment ender is
problematic and the # creeps in mysteriously under auto-fill. For
example, in my current running emacs, this happens almost certainly in
all org files that has # in their header. The only (temporary)
solution
seems to reboot emacs (which is painful and disruptive).
If you try eval (forward-comment 1) at the beginning of an org file
that
has some "#+..." it will move to the end of file (the whole file is
regarded as one single comment). So when auto-fill a long text, it
will
find the common prefix to be #.
In addition, I don't think org mode has clear comment syntax or
ideas on
what to do with it.
I can't see any gain from (modify-syntax-entry ?# "<") so I am
proposing
removing it entirely and get rid of this mysterious and annoying bug
once and for all.
The attached patch may (though I think it is quite safe) cause some
bugs
but those will be fixable unlike the one mentioned above.
Best wishes,
Leo
