We could use the "use the style of surrounding code (comments)" approach - when changing an existing commented function use the style already present; when adding a net new function a choice can be made (unless we mandate a style). It will still look ugly, but it will be less bad than mixing within the same block. > Mass conversion of /* to // style would answer that, > but would also create an impossible back-patching problem.
