Comment (by garrett-eclipse):

 @ocean90 thanks for the reference I was just taking a look at this.

 I'm curious if in core we add a comment specific to the first string on
 the line if the parser would associate the two strings properly? If so I
 can put a patch in for 5.0.x to address the issue in core.

 Current string;
 `$this->month_abbrev[ /* translators: month name */ __( 'December' ) ]  =
 /* translators: three-letter abbreviation of the month */ _x( 'Dec',
 'December abbreviation' );`

 Suggestion;
 `$this->month_abbrev[ /* translators: month name */ __( 'December' ) ]  =
 /* translators: three-letter abbreviation of the month */ _x( 'Dec',
 'December abbreviation' );`

 Let me know if that mitigates the upstream issue and I'll put a patch
 together.

 Thanks
