IIRC, we're doing the C++ comments fix so that -ansi will work with
system vendor headers with // in them, right?

Well, how about instead we change cpp to always grok // in system
headers, even with -ansi?  Then we can avoid this fix altogether and
change even fewer header files than if we got the regexp "right".  (I
quoted "right" because I don't think we can ever really do this 100%.)
