Mostly the C++ comments are there for specific things we need to fix before
it's complete (easier to search for).  Likely a few are attributable to

Agreed.  In the code I have edited I typically re-write it as "if (NULL !=
yes) foo;" but a lot of code has been copied in wholesale and we haven't
always updated that code.
