I've just gone through `comment-dwim' in edebug (the Emacs debugger), and
it seems like comments are being made to fit within `fill-column'. I
don't know why this is being done, but could you try setting it to a high
value, say
(setq fill-column 150)
. Does this solve the immediate problem? Does it introduce any new
problems?
