[sqlite] Strange error "Incomplete SQL"

[zak mc kracken]

(I oversimplified the db to show the problem)

$ cat error
create table t(c);
select c from t; --COMMENT
$ sqlite < error
Incomplete SQL: select c from t; --COMMENT
$ sqlite -version
2.8.17

if I remove the '--COMMENT' there is no error... why?
the problem persist using /*COMMENT*/ style
