   BONG!

   Sorry, I couldn't resist..

   The /**/ kludge is not supposed to "work" (i.e. accomplish token pasting).
   However, in some implementations it does.  It cannot work in any standard
   conforming implementation, however.

BZZZT! ;^)  The original question asked about how to do it on the Sun,
since the ## which *should* work, doesn't, because sun cc is not ANSI-
compliant.

Is it appropriate to post here about what's appropriate to post here?
