>Summary: mofpp is overagressive when detecting comments

Initial Comment:
While processing the MOF file by the sfcbmofpp utility in the SFCB 1.3.7 version - it wrongly considers "//" anywhere in the line as Comment  and removes the part of line from the MOF file.  This introduces syntax error in the MOF.

I faced this issue while using the sfcbstage to place the MOF files onto stage directory.

For example :  The following is the  part of my my MOF file.  

=========================================
      [Override ( "ProtocolIFType" ),
       Description (
          "ProtocolIFType is an enumeration that is synchronized "
          "with the IANA ifType MIB. The ifType MIB is maintained "
          "at the URL, "
          "http:/ /www.iana.org/assignments/ianaiftype-mib. Also, "
          "additional values defined by the DMTF are included. The "
          "property is used to categorize and classify instances of "
          "the ProtocolEndpoint class. Note that if the "
          "ProtocolIFType is set to 1 (Other), then the type "
          "information should be provided in the "
          "OtherTypeDescription string property." ),
===========================================

once you process this MOF with the sfcbmofpp utility , the above section gets changed as follows : [See the line where http:// is there]

=============================================
      [Override ( "ProtocolIFType" ),
       Description (
          "ProtocolIFType is an enumeration that is synchronized "
          "with the IANA ifType MIB. The ifType MIB is maintained "
          "at the URL, "
          "http:          "additional values defined by the DMTF are included. The "
          "property is used to categorize and classify instances of "
          "the ProtocolEndpoint class. Note that if the "
          "ProtocolIFType is set to 1 (Other), then the type "
          "information should be provided in the "
          "OtherTypeDescription string property." ),
