That indentation style dates back to the good old days when it wasn't portable to put '#error' in column 1. gcc -Wtraditional still warns about this; please see bullets 1 and 2 of: http://gcc.gnu.org/onlinedocs/gcc-4.8.1/cpp/Traditional-miscellany.html#Traditional-miscellany I know we needn't worry about this any more, but old habits die hard, and anyway the "indent-before-#error" style is long-established and harmless.
