Hello,

there is another comment, after deleting all of these comments, the build works fine.
I tried one of the failing comments in a c file and compiled it - this works without making such problems.

../src/tool_formparse.c:112:30: warning: comma without following space
  * 'name=@filename,filename2,filename3'
                              ^
../src/tool_formparse.c:120:45: warning: comma without following space

Hello,
On two systems, I got the same errors. The compiler is complaining about comments.
