[I just read the forwarded e-mails.] I hope they have time to 
optimize their preprocessor.

With 4 elements it took:
- 0.14 seconds on MSVC++ and
- 5 minutes with Comeau 4.2.38.

I wouldn't want to use such a short list, but I'd like the regression 
tests to run in remotely acceptable time on all compilers.
