Don't think so for example:
	options	"BOOTP_WIRED_TO=fxp0"
Then in a c-snippet:
	strcmp(string,BOOTP_WIRED_TO)
Will change into
	strcmp(string,fxp0)
which will fail to compile want
	 strcmp(string,"fxp0")
so for now I stick in a 
	#define BOOTP_WIRED_TO "fxp0" 
in the code.

I need the quotes passed through or made to happen someway.
