I haven't been through the whole thing, but I did notice this: the
comment stripping code looks rather fragile. I think it would blow up if
there were a continuation line not starting with qr/\s*\*/. It's a lot
simpler and more robust to do this if you slurp the file in whole.
Here's what we do in the buildfarm code:
my $src = file_contents($_);
# strip C comments
# We used to use the recipe in perlfaq6 but there is actually no point.
# We don't need to keep the quoted string values anyway, and
# on some platforms the complex regex causes perl to barf and crash.
$src =~ s{/\*.*?\*/}{}gs;
After you've done that splitting it into lines is pretty simple.
