  No, it isn't.

  A bug is a programming mistake: The programmer wanted to achieve some
effect, but he made a programming mistake and the code doesn't work.

  This is clearly not a bug: It works exactly as the programmer wanted
it to work. It's just that the programmer didn't expect that some
language would use nested /* */ comments and didn't make any code
to handle that.

  It's just a deficiency, not a bug.
