What do we have against C++ style comments?
They are not valid in C code :P
Wrong.
Valid in GNU C for about 14 years, and ANSI/ISO C for about 10
years...
I'll be surprised if any C compiler used on any open source
operating
system, or any major commercial C compiler, doesn't accept them.
Gladly even ten-year-old GCC 2.95.x supports 'em. But even a recent
GCC does not when compiled with -ansi, which is why system headers
still mustn't use them.
