Ah.  I see.

Changes to commented code can't break things, obviously.  I'd
normally prefer it if people didn't introduce breakage into
commented code.  This particular breakage especially is subtle and
easily avoidable by just putting a NULL as the first element.

You mentioned that it wasn't appropriate to remove the comment in
this patch.  You are planning to remove it soon though, yes?
