Source code is not versioned, so it does not matter when you wrote your ABL or what editor you used. But there has been no proscribed way to write comments over the years and different templates have used different stypes for commenting (and most of the Progress-supplied tools have allowed people to write their own templates for files). This means that most existing comments in files were not added with any concept of the 'future' ABLDoc syntax, so you will find that some pre-existing files may randomly have commenting styles that cause unexpected behaviour. But there is nothing 'version specific' about comments or ABL that makes it work better or worse in 11.6 with regards to ABLDoc. You can write files in 11.6 that don't adhere to the ABLDoc standards and they will, naturally, also not work with ABLDoc, even if the code compiles.
