Thanks, Toon, and sorry for inconvenience. I think we should run gcc with 
-pedantic, to avoid such problems in future. If I add it, I get:

execunix.c:13:21: warning: C++ style comments are not allowed in ISO C90
execunix.c:13:21: warning: (this will be reported only once per input file)
fileunix.c:22:22: warning: C++ style comments are not allowed in ISO C90
fileunix.c:22:22: warning: (this will be reported only once per input file)
pathunix.c:289:5: warning: C++ style comments are not allowed in ISO C90
pathunix.c:289:5: warning: (this will be reported only once per input file)

Ok, I'm fixing the above problems and adding -pedantic.
