I am fence posted on this one, Like Grog I see no great reason
or "benifit" that doing this adds to the code, it may infact
distract some from the very consistent nature of the BSD code.

However in defence of // I do see that len("// ") vs len("/*  */")
to be of benifit on end of line comments.  

Given the contraints in the review I am in favor of allowing //.
