Of course not. And comment blocks are not a problem AFAICS, visiting the file will clearly show that this is not an actual call. In C it's preprocessing that is a problem. And function pointers.Uhhh, indirection, tremble!!! Nice one, function pointers! Fortunately no-one ever, ever, stores functions in variables in Lisp. Phew!
Inopportune irony. I mentioned calling function in variables two lines above: "Even a tool that would be aware of the Lisp read primitive cannot categorically answer that question, for example when function names are created dynamically, or with (apply variable args)."
