[boost] Re: [ANN] New Version of the Wave preprocessor libraryreleased (Isthis a bug?)

Well i did manage to get it to compile by simply adding a primary
template declaration for the policy class. <cringe>

It seemed to be behaving all right until i tried to preprocess the
following (and i wonder if i caused this behavior by my above tinkering
or whether this is truly standard behavior):

#define C C

#if C
X()
#endif

Wave spits out that this is an ill-formed preprocessor expression -

Is that true?

>From my reading of the standard this should first get transformed into:

#if 0
X()
#endif

Can someone explain or confirm what the expected outcome should be, and
whether it is my compilation of wave that is broken?

regards,
