Is it already a known problem that the preprocessor cannot cope with the whole set of possible string declarations?

The cpp is a *C* preprocessor, and if it has been written to adhere to the C standard, it is required to diagnose tokens that are not valid C preprocessing tokens (such as string literals that do not end before the end of a line). As such, this is unsurprising. It would probably make most sense to make cpphs the (only) preprocessor used with -cpp instead of using whatever *C* preprocessor happens to be in the path. -- Antti-Juhani Kaijanaho, Jyväskylä, Finland http://antti-juhani.kaijanaho.fi/newblog/ http://www.flickr.com/photos/antti-juhani/
