Dear elephant,
This behaviour of ?> in a comment is documented in the PHP manual, and
has been as long is I've been using it.
Definitely *not* a bug.

If this is not a bug, i must be an elephant. Just check this out, sir:
At first, take this code:
<?php
echo '?>';
echo '?>';
echo '?>';
?>
And then take this one:
<?php
echo '?>';
//echo '?>';
echo '?>';
?>
This is bug if i cant comment a line that outputs a string that has
"some special characters".

Description:
------------
Comment line starters # and // dont work properly. I thought everything
that follows these signs is considered a comment. Now in PHP5 (have no
place to test on PHP4 now) i find out that if i have the PHP tag ?> in
the commented line, the parser ends parsing PHP right there! So if you
have smth like this in your code, then the rest of php code is sent as
output !!!
Reproduce code:
---------------
<?php
echo 'hello world!';
// echo '?>';
$password='secretpassword';
?>
Expected result:
----------------
hello world!
Actual result:
--------------
hello world!';
$password='secretpassword';
?>
