AFAIK comments and equivalent (a single string is considered as a
comment) are not represented in the AST. I struggled with that in
pyreport (no use to look at the pyreport code: I don't think that it is
useable for you). I think that the way out it to use a combination of the
tokenizer and the AST to identify such trouble makers before feeding them
to the AST. It gets nasty.

In py3k, I believe that the underlying notion is that of a CST: 'concrete
syntax tree', that keeps extra information, such as the comments or
blocks made of strings. It was introduced for code manipulations.
I hope I haven't inserted too many factual mistakes above :)
