Pre-tokenization is probably a good idea, but one that Borland has used
since Borland C++ 2.0 is pre-compiled headers. They have (needlessly)
strict rules on what the system will do, but since header files in C
typically only introduce information to the symbol table anyhow (at least
in my header files) this would seem to me to be a real advantage in any
large system.
