It builds with VC8 express OK for me, but I think this relates to the code 
page used on your machine - it's interpreting some of the characters in the 
comments as the start of a multi-byte sequence, and that's why the closing 
*/ isn't found (it is there it's just not interpretted as such).

I'm attaching a version with the comments deleted, can you let me know if 
this fixes the issue?

Thanks,

John.
