Explain this to the MSVC and MWCW folks. They both got it wrong. That's the
main reason for which I'd like an open-source, good quality C++
preprocessor.

And by the way, I understand some preprocessors take a pathologically long
time with the Preprocessor Library (something I'm too scared to look at) so
if Boost had a preprocessor offering, that would come in handily. Then,
users could combine the Boost preprocessor with their compiler.
