Typically, later patches either use this deactivated code (maybe after
some modifications), or they remove it completely. More documentation
would help of course - I'll try my best :-)

The purpose of this patch was only elimination of C++ comments by formally
transforming them to either C comments or by using the preprocessor #if.
