The problem is that phpMyAdmin removes trailing space, so it is not valid ANSI 
comment then:

#1064 - You have an error in your SQL syntax.  Check the manual that 
corresponds to your MySQL server version for the right syntax to use near 
'--' at line 3

I currently don't have time to track where the space is being trimmed...
