 It is illegal because you are trying to paste together two 
 tokens which do not make one token in terms of the C standard.
 It has been permanently removed because gcc uses a new 
 preprocessor, this has been this way since 3.0.
 You might get what you expect from using the option -traditional-cpp.
 
 Thanks,
 Andrew Pinski
