There's nothing like a compiler that has a list of known problems 24 pages long!  I'm not kiding. Look in \mcc18\MPLAB-C18-README.txt

my friend paul tells me this is a "known standard bug of the c language".
"Java 1.0 also suffered this bug"
"The parser falls off the end of the line into another file and then completes it at the next ";" it finds that isnt in a compiler directive or comment"
