Date: Sat, 05 Feb 2022 18:51:45 -0500

In GNU Emacs 29.0.50 (build 2, x86_64-pc-linux-gnu, GTK+ Version 3.24.20, cairo 
version 1.16.0)
 of 2022-02-02 built on orion
Repository revision: ed13b0d0f427df333f8e1f9a24015c354da4c62f
Repository branch: rgr-ietf-drums-date
Windowing system distributor 'The X.Org Foundation', version 11.0.12003000
System Description: openSUSE Leap 15.3

   In master as of d34dd869d2, doing

        (ietf-drums-get-comment "random (comment) (string)")

returns "string", whereas the docstring says it returns the content of
the first comment.  The documentation for both ietf-drums-get-comment
and mail-header-get-comment say "last"; perusing the code (only
ietf-drums-get-comment is actually called) also shows that the last one
is what callers expect.
