Thanks, my version was a couple weeks old and the current version does
work with this example. However I could not make it work with this
slightly bigger example:

--8<---------------cut here---------------start------------->8---
* Testing

#+BEGIN_SRC emacs-lisp
(message "hello world")
#+END_SRC

* COMMENT Commenting

#+BEGIN_SRC emacs-lisp
(message "Salut le monde 2")
#+END_SRC

** Testing sub tree

#+BEGIN_SRC emacs-lisp
(message "hello subtree")
#+END_SRC
--8<---------------cut here---------------end--------------->8---

I see that "hello subtree" is tangled. Does it mean that to comment a
whole tree I need to comment every subtree (recursively)?

Thanks,

Alan
