What were you trying to do?

  Compile a program.

What's wrong:

  /usr/include/sys/ioctl.h has the following lines, starting at 471:

/* #define SIOCSCREENON	_IOWR('i', 49, int)	/* screend, net/gw_screen.h */
/* #define SIOCSCREEN	_IOWR('i', 50, struct screen_data)	/* screend */
/* #define SIOCSCREENSTATS _IOR('i', 51, struct screen_stats)	/* screend */

Theses lines contain `/*' within comments.  This is in violation of
ANSI, causes warnings with some compilers, and errors with other.  Saber
considers it fatal if the ansi option is set.

What should have happened:

  They should be fixed. 

Please describe any relevant documentation references:
  
  ANSI spec.
