Multiline comments not working when they begin with the same character as a sing

[Patrick C]

In Matlab comments are defined as follows:

% This am a single line comment

%{
  This is a multi
  line comment
%}

The issue is, that both %{ and %} are interpreted as a single line comments and the in-between not formatted as comments!
As soon as one removes the definition of the % as a single line comment, the multi line comment is formatted correctly but this obviously will disable correct single line comment formatting.
