If that is what you have in your html, then that should work (it does  
everywhere on my Mac, except IE 5 Mac).
I don't have IE 7 beta to test.

Have you tried to put them on separate lines ?
<h1>test</h1>
<!-- comment -->
<h2> other text</h2>

Maybe it is another incarnation of those odd white-space parsing bugs  
in IE...
Just curious.
