in cases like this, it's kind of a judgment call. if that's truly a
strict standard, then sure. but i'm pretty sure there's a *lot* of
the above type of comment in the source and when i'm just fixing
comments, i prefer to make as unobtrusive a change as possible.
i'll let wolfgang decide, and i'll go with whatever he chooses.
note carefully that you used the phrase "commonly", without claiming
that it's a hard and fast standard, which is why i left it alone.
