Is there any way to get the C preprocessor in AIX 3.0 to allow the following
through:
/**/#########
Currently, it ignores the comments and tries to process the #'s as a
directive. I've tried -qlanglvl={ansi,saal2,saa,extended} and they all
give the same response. Any suggestions?
Doug.

(When I made my vain attempt at porting R4, I just deleted as many lines with /**/ as I could.

There is also a directive you can give the compiler to make it use /lib/cpp instead of the built-in preprocessor wired into xlc.
