The following C program will not compile with the command "gcc file.c":

#define FIRST "This is a split
int main() {
   printf( FIRST string");
}

It gives the expected error message about the malformed preprocessor token.
However if the output of "cpp file.c" or "gcc -E file.c" is saved and fed back
into gcc then it DOES compile and run. Here is the output of "gcc -E file.c":

int main() {
   printf( "This is a split string");
}

I checked the ANSI standard and this is indeed an illegal program. Shouldn't
the preprocessor give an error message when run alone?
