If the only issue is defining what emacs things is a comment, couldn't youjust
modify the syntax table and set the appropriate value to mark the comment
character?
If not, its *really* easy to define a derived mode. You could derive a specific
mode for these files from text or fundamental mode. There is an example of a
derived mode on the meacs wiki I think (http://www.emacswiki.org).
