> gdb will show this with "info macro".  Macros aren't really variables

You probably imply that macros can accept arguments, which makes them not t=
o be
variables. Well=E2=80=A6 probably that's fair too. Feel free to close repor=
t if you
don't
think it's actionable.

I don't think such problem is a thing. If you execute `info variables` with=
 the
original
testcase which does not even contain includes, you will get so overwhelming
amount of output that terminal scrollback won't have enough space. That's w=
hy
`i
variables` supports regexps, to reduce the output.
