This is the simplest possible patch which solves the issue that the user reported. In general, stripping the comments shouldn't cause any problems, so I don't think applying this patch would be wrong. That said, if you can come up with a sensible way to detect whether the rst2html binary found on the system is the correct one and abort otherwise, that would indeed be great! Do you want to give it a try and see whether it's feasible with a reasonable amount of effort?
