Jakub Jelinek <jakub at gcc dot gnu.org> changed: What |Removed |Added ---------------------------------------------------------------------------- Status|UNCONFIRMED |RESOLVED CC| |jakub at gcc dot gnu.org Resolution|--- |INVALID --- Comment #4 from Jakub Jelinek <jakub at gcc dot gnu.org> --- See e.g. ISO C99, 6.10.3/11, last sentence: "If there are sequences of preprocessing tokens within the list of arguments that would otherwise act as preprocessing directives, the behavior is undefined." Similarly for C++, see e.g. http://eel.is/c++draft/cpp.replace#11 So, the compiler can do anything with it.
