Another solution would be to write a filter that changes // comments
to /* */ comments.

However, on my NeXT, I've never gotton indent to behave properly.  It
always seems to garble some part of the pretty print, even when no //
are involved.

Thus, perhaps the final solution is to get the source to indent
and fix it. 8-)
