That's just a C++ style comment that shouldn't really be in C code
(but some C compilers treat just like a C comment)

Just edit sbr/dtimep.c and change

        num_to_alloc = 1; // After all that talk, this was set to 1 anyways...

to either just

        num_to_alloc = 1;

or
        num_to_alloc = 1; /* After all that talk, this was set to 1 anyways...*/

whichever you prefer.   If any other // comments are there to be found,
fix those in a similar way...
