Whats wrong with

/*
 * logn returns the log base `b' of the value `v'.
 */
static float
logn(int v, int b)
{
}

I've never felt that inline comments were that nice.  If you really
want to be verbose take that same line by line list and put it in the
comment.  I think they just clutter the code and obfuscate the function
type.

Thanks,
