in thread C comment stripping preprocessor

It may well be that the comments that you are familiar with are sterile and have no inclination toward nesting. However, I can assure you, that our comments are quite lively and prone to nesting. They therefore require appropriate management.

Perhaps I should mention that these are actually C++ comments and it may be that hybrid vigor accounts for the difference in nesting behaviour?
