Schema Compare 3.0.0.689 - bug report

Bug report:
1. Create comments on the columns of a VIEW in the database (Oracle XE 11.2.0.2.0)
2. Use schema compare v3.0.0.689 to generate scripts - runs OK
3. Use schema compare v3.0.0.689 to re-create objects in database schema from scripts - FAILS
The Schema Compare run in step 3 fails when running deployment script with "Error: ORA-00911: invalid character"
Removing the "comment on column view.column is '...'" commands from the "create view" script seems to fix the problem - so assume that these comments are the cause of the problem.
Could someone please confirm whether
(1) This is a bug?
and
(2) When we can expect a new version of Schema Compare that fixes this (and the 2 previously reported bugs)?

Thanks for getting in touch. This could be a bug but as ever, it depends. Can you post here or send to oracle@red-gate.com the SQL the Schema Compare is outputting that causes this problem?
I think it could be either we're outputting invalid SQL or the target you are deploying to has a different character set than the source (assuming it is a different database).
Thanks,
Neil
