Just because I have never seen such a comment style. So to be exact
I should write it is not badly formatted, but it is rare comment style
in my experiences. Usually I have seen following comment style:

    /*
	Sort the "n" elements of vector "base" into increasing order
	using the comparison function pointed to by "cmp".
	The elements are of size "sz".

	Shell sort (Knuth, Vol3, pg84)
    */
    void ssort(void * base, size_t n, size_t sz, CFT cmp)
    {
	/* ...  */
    }
