[MITgcm-devel] Fwd: Re: exf_interp

[Martin Losch]

There are many single quote in comments all over the place, in general 
you have to use a cpp that supports the -traditional flag, but I also 
noticee that on SunOS, where the default cpp does not support the 
-traditional flag (which is why we removed it from xmakedepend last 
week), cpp handles these comments correctly.
