        <pre>I compiled three test codes with -std=c89 compiler option.

(A)
  int main(void)
  {
      //
      return 0;
  }

(B)
  int main(void)
  {
      //
      //*
      return 0;
  }

(C)
  int main(void)
  {
      //*
      return 0;
  }

Code (A) compiles fine with a warning
  a.c:3:5: warning: // comments are not allowed in this language [-Wcomment]

Code (B) behaves in the same way as (A).

Code (C) fails to compile with the following errors:
  c:3:5: error: expected expression
      //*
      ^
  c:3:6: error: unterminated /* comment
      //*
       ^

The behavior of Code (C) is inconsistent with those of Codes (A) and (B).
Tested on clang trunk.</pre>
