Weird script problems solved...

Hi,

About a week back I'd posted a message asking for help with a script
that as far as I could tell was well formed. The problem was with 2
INSERT statements directly after the CREATE TABLE statement of the
table that I was trying to insert data into. I'd used C single/multi
line comments of the form:

/* woo */

and

/* foo
* bar
* baz
*/

throughout the script. In order to determine what the problem was I
ran the script through a C preprocessor to remove the comments.
Without comments the script worked as expected. I replaced the C
style comments with SQL '--' comments and the script also worked as
expected. Unfortunately, I didn't maintain a copy of the C commented
script to help PSQL developers but thought this important to mention
anyway.

Thanks,
Jamu.
