Hi James/Jamie (which do you prefer?),
Bill Fumerola replied telling you that style(9) requires a slightly
different format for your comments. While it's true, the example he gave
you doesn't appear in style(9).
I'd do this:
case 'i': /* Unix 98 compatibility option */
/* FALLTHROUGH */
Personally, I wouldn't provide the comment at all. Focus on the manpage
instead. :-P
Oh, and note the spelling of compatibility. :-)
later,
Sheldon.
