It works with the -- comment format. Has the C format been added to
the standard, or is it an extension? If the latter, support for it
would be up to the PostgreSQL community -- it's only a bug if we say

cc=> select 'a' --comment
'b';
?column?

ab
(1 row)
cc=> select 'a' -- comment
-- comment
'b';
?column?
