--- Comment #3 from Dimitry Andric <dim@FreeBSD.org> ---
Apparently gcc thinks the same, you just have to add -Wcomment:

$ gcc -v
Using built-in specs.

Thread model: posix
gcc version 9.2.0 (FreeBSD Ports Collection)

$ gcc -Wcomment -c multiline.c
multiline.c:1:1: warning: multi-line comment [-Wcomment]
    1 | // \
      | ^

And similar for gcc 4.8, 7.5 and 8.3.

I am unsure about the interpretation of the various standards though, as they
do not say much, if anything, about warnings.  The construct is completely
legal, so it causes no errors unless you insist on making all warnings errors.

Maybe you can report this upstream with gcc and clang, to see what their
opinion is?  I am hesitant to make changes to our versions unless there is a
pressing need to do so.
