Reminds me of Unix's (Reiser) cpp, which had a buffer-
boundary bug such that *occasionally* (maybe 1 time in 200)
a termination */ was not properly detected ans so extra
code was in effect "commented out" during compilation.
We fixed that in the BRL version(s) of Unix, but it
may still have been wrong in some releases of Unix
System V. (I'd have to check and it doesn't seem worth
doing.)
