Hi, I can't reproduce with 4.2.4.2 and Ubuntu 14.04, following your description I still have the good comment in cell A4 and don't have any comment in A6. 
I think it's a duplicate of bug 73273 but it should be corrected in 4.2.1. Please could you try to reproduce with the latest 4.2.4 version? thanks - Sophie

Cant reproduce in Linux or Windows with 4.1.6 or 4.2.4.

Dan: Can you please confirm that you are still having this issue, with any of these two versions.

Sophie: the bug number you mentioned doesnt seem related to this bug.
