It is caused by a typo in usr.bin/less/defines.h, in r242584, where Xin
imported a new version of less:

187 	#if 0 /* old sizes for small memory machines
188 	#define CMDBUF_SIZE 512 /* Buffer for multichar commands */

The "old sizes for small memory machines" comment is not properly
terminated.  Clang has the above warning specifically to ferret out such
typos. :)
