I googled a little for the aix compiler and it looks like it supports both
c99 if one tells it to (-langlvl=stdc99) and a just c++ comments if
one wants (-qcpluscmt).
Then again, I'm sure there are lots of old compilers out there, that does
not support it. Personally I would be happy to just demand c99 but I don't
think I get to choose.
