Description
Format all fails if "Preserve existing line breaks option is off !
Steps to Reproduce:
Goto to (Default) Project Properties. Goto Formatting. Goto tab Wrapping.
Uncheck option "Preserve existing line breaks".

Open any project, open any class and insert following code:

  public void test() {
    Object x=new Object();
    /* i
   am
   stuipd
   */
    if (x instanceof Object) {
      System.out.println("hello");
    }
  }

Now do right mouse click and select format all. Watch carefully to your
test2 method. Watch the comments and the line below. Do you get something
like this ?

First format all:
public void test2() {
    Object x=new Object();
    /*
     I am
         stupid
     */if (x instanceof Object) {
      System.out.println("hello");
    }
  }

Even more but I can't reproduce, sometimes it happens following:

public void test2() {
    Object x=new Object();
    /*
     I am
         stupid
     if*/ (x instanceof Object) {
      System.out.println("hello");
    }
  }

Whish is TERRIBLE !!!
Workarounds
Never use Unchecked option "Preserve existing line breaks".
