Summary: Better than the last one (no warnings)

This one works a little better; it doesn't complain when compiled by the
Pascal compiler (at least under 4.3BSD)

Tricks:
	- { } is a comment in Pascal, statement delimeters in C.
	- /*) and (*/ to toggle between 'C' and Pascal.  
	- The only reason to have the #define openbrace in there is so
that the Pascal compiler doesn't give you a warning about having an
open brace character in the middle of a comment.

Anyone want to work on some more obscure ones???
