Actually, regex.c has:
# if defined (__STDC__) || defined (ALMOST_STDC) || defined
(HAVE_STRINGIZE)
# define PREFIX(name) wcs_##name
# define ARG_PREFIX(name) c##name
# else
# define PREFIX(name) wcs_/**/name
# define ARG_PREFIX(name) c/**/name
# endif
So traditional compilers can use the traditional pasting method.
That doesn't necessarily mean that the old HPUX C compiler doesn't support
string pasting, just that you can't use this code as an assertion that it
does.
