lint cares about comments in defines

>How-To-Repeat:

	$ cat > lint-define.c
	#define LINTFOO 1  /* comment */
	#define LINTFOO 1  /* diffrent */ 
	int foo;
	$ gcc -Wall -c lint-define.c 
	$ lint -z -v -u lint-define.c
	lint-define.c:
	lint-define.c:2: warning: `LINTFOO' redefined
	lint-define.c:1: warning: this is the location of the previous definition
	Lint pass2:

while


	$ cat > lint-define.c
	#define LINTFOO 1  /* comment */
	#define LINTFOO 1  /* comment */
	$ gcc -Wall -c lint-define.c 
	$ lint -z -v -u lint-define.c
	lint-define.c:
	Lint pass2:
