I should have been clearer. Note the word "essentially", though. I admit
I didn't think of partial preprocessing, which could be useful.


Do remember, though, that ANSI C in particular encourages rather more use
of macros with potentially implementation-specific bodies than older C
practice. Not to say that partial preprocessing won't work, but a rather
larger number of identifiers are going to have to be marked "hands off".
