Yep, I'm aware of both, it is simply a personal preference of mine.
I'm not going to reject patches with C++ style comments, but I would
ask people to stick to the good ol' fashioned comments for patches
they submit.

FYI, the sky is blue.

It isn't just the license headers either, Al dropped one into hooks.c
:).  Just like I don't plan to reject patches due only to the comment
style, you don't see me pushing patches to change the C++ comments.
