[Scons-users] #includes within C/C++ comment blocks are not ignored

[Raven Kopelman]

Hi Scons folks,

I believe SCons 2.5.0 through 3.0.0 has a bug related to C/C++ comment
parsing.

In 2.4.1 SCons happily ignored #include statements in comment blocks, but
this is no longer the case.

Here is an example of the kind of patch we now have to apply to beecrypt in
order to avoid false complaints about circular dependencies.

+-/* Mark Paton: Removed to use C rather then assembly code
+-#include "blowfishopt.h"
+-*/
++// Mark Paton: Removed to use C rather then assembly code
++// include "blowfishopt.h"

Please advise if there is more information I can provide for this problem.

Thanks,
