C99 have simular text in 6.10.3 Macro replacement, but C99 also say:

5.1.1.2 Translation phases

1 The precedence among the syntax rules of translation is specified by the
  following phases.

   1. [..]

   2. [..]

   3. The source file is decomposed into preprocessing tokens and
      sequences of white-space characters (including comments). A source
      file shall not end in a partial preprocessing token or in a partial
      comment. Each comment is replaced by one space character. New-line
      characters are retained. Whether each nonempty sequence of
      white-space characters other than new-line is retained or replaced by
      one space character is implementation-defined.

   4. Preprocessing directives are executed, macro invocations are
      expanded, and _Pragma unary operator expressions are executed. If a
      character sequence that matches the syntax of a universal character
      name is produced by token concatenation (6.10.3.3), the behavior is
      undefined. A #include preprocessing directive causes the named header
      or source file to be processed from phase 1 through phase 4,
      recursively. All preprocessing directives are then deleted.

So shouldn't lint check the preprosessor directive #define after comments
have been processed/replaced with space ?

Love
