Guys, this was just pure garbage, and obviously noboduy actually
looked at that shit-for-brains patch.
There were several idiotic things like this:
-/******************************
+/*****************************
because part of it was apparently generated with some overly stupid
search-and-replace. So when replacing "/**" with "/*", it also just
removed a star from those boxed-in comments.
In the process that thing also made some of those boxes no longer aligned.
Now, box comments are stupid anyway, but they become truly
mind-bogglingly pointless when they are then edited like this.
I've pulled this, but dammit, show some amount of sense. We shouldn't
have this kind of pointless noise in the rc series. That pointless
noise may now be hiding the real changes.
