Since the 3.x+ preprocessors don't exhibit this bug, I would rather say that in the compiler. Also, the requirement of putting the spaces around the comma is somewhat troublesome, counter-intuitive and not really justified by anything, IMHO... Adding (or not) spaces should be a matter of style and not syntax - since the C syntax doesn't require the spaces, the preprocessor requirement is the more unexpected by a C/C++ programmer. regards, marek
