It was a bug.  Now, at long last, it has been fixed, specifically in
commit 25ed447b7bec3af66cf0322239cfabbaf71bef26 of today, "CC Mode: Fix
positioning of point whilst inserting comments without non-ws".

The fix is also in the head of the default branch of stand alone CC Mode
at Sourceforge.

I am closing the bug with this post.  Sorry it was ignored for so long.
