I did ./configure and make -- then I tried autogen before the ./configure
with same results.
Here is my ./configure script or rather a shell script to invoke ./configure
./configure --prefix=/usr --build=x86_64-pc-linux-gnu
--host=x86_64-pc-linux-gnu --mandir=/usr/share/man --infodir=/usr/share/info
--datadir=/usr/share --sysconfdir=/etc --localstatedir=/var/lib
--prefix=/usr --mandir=/usr/share/man --sysconfdir=/etc/nmh
--libdir=/usr/lib64/nmh --with-ndbmheader=gdbm/ndbm.h
--with-ndbm=gdbm_compat

Huh ... did you compile directly from the 1.6 tarball? I ask because that
line does not appear in the distributed sbr/dtimep.c.
sbr/dtimep.c is generated by lex/flex from sbr/dtimep.l, but the
distribution ships with a pre-generated dtimep.c so you shouldn't need
to run lex/flex unless something unusual is happening. Judging by the
above error, your dtimep.c contains a C99-style comment line (//) and
your compiler doesn't support that, but I don't really know how that could
have happened unless you rebuilt the distribution.
