I prefer:

	case Some*weird*and/long+expression is
	  ...
	end case;	-- Some*weird*and/long+expression

since it requires no vendor action and I have resigned myself to
the fact that successful programming can never be entirely devoid
of self-discipline.

I have found that so long as _every_ end case has such a comment,
I am unlikely to get them interchanged.
