Not a bug in Emacs.

The interface/docstring of
`ispell-comments-and-strings' is a bit unclear so I
had to examine the source to understand it. It says:

    (ispell-comments-and-strings ONLY-CURRENT)

    Check comments and strings in the current buffer
    for spelling errors.

It is not 100% clear what ONLY-CURRENT refers to,
especially since the docstring mentions the "current
buffer" which is an unrelated currency.

I think it should say something like: "If
ONLY-CURRENT, only spellcheck the string or comment
under point, otherwise spellcheck all strings and
comments in the current buffer."
