Add /* */. It doesn't break anything to add it, and it is consistant with
 traditional C.

It is also extremely easy to add to the language. Only question is how to
 unparse. Should all comments be unparsed as /* or // or whatever they
 were to begin with?

I vote for it to be an option of unparseing all as one or the other.

(I would be totally opposed to removing // as a line break terminated comment.)
