  Yes, I have had that problem. Irritating, isn't it :) The only fix I know of
is to modify the "/**/". Either remove it, or modify it to "/* */" (I think that
works). Another "fix" would be to use another cpp, perhaps GNU's?

  My system is: RS/6000 550, AIX 3.1.6. I saw the problem while compiling X11R5.
Fortunately there was only one instance of "/**/", but that was bad enough.

    Cheers,
