Sure. Tell me how to identify the fact that "FlexLexer.h"
is a C++ file. Were it, "FlexLexer.H" or "FlexLexer.h++"
or just about anything except "*.h", then it would be ignored.
At the same time, I do not think it crucial that the comments
remain. After all, they _are_ comments and /usr/include/FlexLexer.h
still remains in /usr/include for visual reference. Please,
propose a solution.
