 If I include the following code snippet in a quickbook file:

 {{{
 ```
 #define HELLO_WORLD_TEST_CASE(name_) \
     BOOST_FIXTURE_TEST_CASE(hello_world_##name_, hello_world_fixture)
 ```
 }}}

 quickbook complains about the token pasting operator ##, believing it to
 be a preprocessor directive like #define.  It issues a warning such as:
 {{{
 warning: in column:41, unexpected character: #
 }}}
 and colors the second "#name_" in the color of a preprocessor directive.
