   Tsk. Legal is as legal does. :-)  I don't think it should have any
   business trying to pick character constants out of something inside
   an excluded #ifdef block.  I should be able to put raw random bits
   in there.  Well, ok, maybe we'll allow that it has to be a legal
   charset.

Like it or not, it's legal ANSI C behavior for the preprocessor to
tokenize its input.  If you want a macro preprocesor, use m4 =:O
(ducks)
