	I got this same result when I started building some X programs.  To
	get xmkmf (or imake in this case) to parse Imake.tmpl properly, delete
	lines 199 and 200 (the lines begin with /**/# ...).  I didn't try to
	determine why this problem occured, since removing the lines (which
	are just comments) corrected it.

	Another problem that bit me was the "add a space between macros,
	feature?" of the C preprocessor.  How can this be turned off??!!!!!
