This is one of a series of reports of bugs found in the C++ compiler here at
warwick. We have release 1.0 of the software.

DESCRIPTION

	A C++ file is run through cpp before cfront, right?
	Cpp Doesn't recognise // style comments and tries to process them
	as normal. Any words in such comments which also happen to be
	macro names will cause cpp to throw up.

EXAMPLE

	#define foo(x)	(x)

	main()
	{
		int i = 1;
		int j = 2;

		i = foo(j);	// That use of foo is fine, but the two
				// occurrances of foo in this comment
				// aren't
	}

OUTPUT

	CC  /tmp/x.c:
	/tmp/x.c: 8: foo: argument mismatch
	/tmp/x.c: 9: foo: argument mismatch
	/tmp/x.c: 8: foo: unterminated macro call
	1 error
