remove duplicated words in comments .. across lines

Inspired by David's patch [0], find attached fixing words duplicated, across
line boundaries.

I should probably just call the algorithm proprietary, but if you really wanted to know, I've suffered again through
sed'sblack/slashes.
 

time find . -name '*.c' -o -name '*.h' |xargs sed -srn '/\/\*/!d; :l; /\*\//!{N; b l}; s/\n[[:space:]]*\*/\n/g;
/(\<[[:alpha:]]{1,})\>\n[[:space:]]*\<\1\>/!d;s//>>&<</; p'
 

Alternately:
time for f in `find . -name '*.c' -o -name '*.h'`; do x=`<"$f" sed -rn '/\/\*/!d; :l; /\*\//!{N; b l};
s/\n[[:space:]]*\*/\n/g;/(\<[[:alpha:]]{1,})\>\n[[:space:]]*\<\1\>/!d; s//>>&<</; p'`; [ -n "$x" ] && echo "$f:" &&
echo"$x"; done |less
