The SQL parser has defect in syntax coloring block comments - /**/ 

Following code is colored well:
/**/
alter trigger ZAK_VYKRESY_AU
as
  declare variable xmontazni_cislo integer;
  declare variable xzmena_datumu smallint;
  declare variable xcharakter_skupiny varchar(1);
.....
_BUT_

Following code is _not_ colored well:
/***/
alter trigger ZAK_VYKRESY_AU
as
  declare variable xmontazni_cislo integer;
  declare variable xzmena_datumu smallint;
  declare variable xcharakter_skupiny varchar(1);
.....

The code after the /***/ comment is recognized as comments. When you add another asterisk *  to the block comment it is resolved well. It seems that odd number of asterisk in block comment is good and even not. So /**/ - good coloring, /***/ false, /****/ good and so on...

This false behaviour was not in previous netbeans releases. On the same SQL source code there were not such errors in 7.1 and prior versions.
