Lint Errors in MSC 5.1 Include Files

[David J. Camp]

---- Module sl-msc.c
                                                _
#define DBL_MIN_EXP     -1021                   /* min binary exponent */
c:\msc\h\float.h(29) : Warning 602: Comment within comment
                                                _
#define LDBL_MIN_EXP    DBL_MIN_EXP             /* min binary exponent */
c:\msc\h\float.h(55) : Warning 602: Comment within comment

Warning 528: _assertstring (line 17, file assert.h) not referenced

I get these errors when running the Microsoft C include (.h) files
through Gimpel PC-Lint version 3.2.  The last one, number 528, is
probably unimportant, but the first two (602) seem serious.  I looked at
the header files in question, and the previous line has no closing
comment delimiter where one would expect it.

Is this a bug?  Should I modify my header files to include the closing
comment delimeter, so that DBL_MIN_EXP and LDBL_MIN_EXP will be properly
defined?
