Subject: (c-comment-prefix-regexp): Document that `c-setup-paragraph-variables'
X-Git-Tag: ttn-vms-21-2-B4~8746

(c-comment-prefix-regexp): Document that `c-setup-paragraph-variables'
has to be used when this variable is changed; it doesn't work to
reinitialize the mode since that typically clobbers the variable.
