Lightbrite Comments Not Working

I'm running epoch 4.2 based on emacs 18.58.

I attempted to apply the syntax parsing changes described in the latest
version of C++mode (2.261.1.2).  These changes allow a language to support
more than one comment delimiter.  I applied the pre-syntax patch and the
syntax change patch.  The patches needed only a little tweaking in order to
be sucessfully applied (one rejection in syntax.c).

Now comments aren't successfully highlighted in lightbrite.el, version
1.1.2, in either Lisp or C++.  I think I need a new version of
syntax-decode.el which understands the new syntax table format.  Does
anyone have such a beast?

But, I also seem to be having a problem with my C++ syntax table:

#		< b	which means: comment,
	  starts comment style b

Hash is _not_ the start of a comment in C++!  Help!  What did I do wrong?
Any help would be appreciated.
