Replying to [comment:6 igloo]:
> They could be switched to use Haskell comments, but I don't know if
being able to include them in C files is also important; Duncan?
The `cabal_macros.h` file can be included by C code and it'd be useful to
do so. I guess if we ever switch to cpphs we would have the same problem.
Note that the `cabal_macros.h` is not the only problem. Other packages
#include header files that contain no C code but only macros and comments.
Hmm.
