<pre>The following code:
/* <a href="show_bug.cgi?id=37336#c1">Comment 1</a> */
/* <a href="show_bug.cgi?id=37336#c2">Comment 2</a> */
Gets rewritten by -rewrite-macros as:
/* <a href="show_bug.cgi?id=37336#c1">Comment 1</a> */
/*/* <a href="show_bug.cgi?id=37336#c2">Comment 2</a> */*/
which then will fail to compile. This behaviour applies to the first pair of
any consecutive comments separated only by whitespace, including in the context
of other code. E.g.
// <a href="show_bug.cgi?id=37336#c3">Comment 3</a>
/* <a href="show_bug.cgi?id=37336#c4">Comment 4</a> */
becomes:
// <a href="show_bug.cgi?id=37336#c3">Comment 3</a>
/*/* <a href="show_bug.cgi?id=37336#c4">Comment 4</a> */*/
and
// <a href="show_bug.cgi?id=37336#c5">Comment 5</a>
// <a href="show_bug.cgi?id=37336#c6">Comment 6</a>
// <a href="show_bug.cgi?id=37336#c7">Comment 7</a>
// <a href="show_bug.cgi?id=37336#c8">Comment 8</a>
becomes
// <a href="show_bug.cgi?id=37336#c5">Comment 5</a>
/* // <a href="show_bug.cgi?id=37336#c6">Comment 6</a> */
// <a href="show_bug.cgi?id=37336#c7">Comment 7</a>
// <a href="show_bug.cgi?id=37336#c8">Comment 8</a>
(The last one is legal code but still not desirable.)</pre>
