Comment (by eldiener):
You are asking for the various limits to be different depending on the
compiler and its version. I don't think this is desirable. Even
determining at what point a compiler limit has been reached for any given
Boost PP processing is an indeterminate thing.
I understand your problem, but it is a compiler problem not a Boost PP
problem. Boost PP does go out of its way to work with the vagaries of
different compilers, VC++ being among them since its preprocessor is
heavily non-standard and as you have found it has further limitations, but
trying to "fix" VC++ in this area is impossible.
