Redundant newlines after /* * * */ style comments

in
5.x-2.x-dev, Coder Format, bug report, normal, won't fix

/*
 * if some condition
 * do something
 */
if (some condition) {
}
well right now there is a bug with this style of comments
coding standards say they are fine, and i don't mind them
but a new line is added after the comments each and every time coder_format runs
so you end up with umpteen empty lines between the comment and the code it's describing
/*
 * if some condition
 * do something
 */
... many new lines ...
if (some condition) {
}
