 I don't think this has anything to do with the preprocessor?
 
 Anyway, I'll have a look.  I suspect your specs are messed up, or
 something has been screwed up with recent changes to specs.

Current gcc cvs snapshots stop compiling with an error: unrecognized

white space between the -o specifier and the argument. The separator is not
required for other c and c++ compilers. Previous gcc versions compile the
