This, of course, works.  The if(FALSE) approach does not because it
requires the "comment" to be syntactically correct.  The multiline
string trick is _almost_ there, the problem is that both " and ' are
fairly common in text and having to escape that is a pain.  

My wtf feature request is to add a multiline string delimiter ala
Python like """.
