Not in the current form, not with this huge built-in table.  Move
that info out into the syntax files.

(There seem to be two main comment styles: hash and slashslash.
You could default to hash, detect whether it has to be slashslash
instead, and leave all the others to be set by the syntax files.)

And it needs a configure flag to exclude the whole function.
