Here's a reduction of a problem I had compiling v8:

char array[5];
__wspiapi_countof_helper(array);
The reduction isn't realistic but the problem is real.
On one hand, ctype.h uses _N and it is within its "rights" to do so as
ctype.h is part of the standard library

When changing from compiler to compiler, even if it be just an OS

of choosing to develop in C or C++, which lack proper module systems.
