# introduces spurious #line markers into the preprocessor output. The result
# appears in gcc 5.0 and (with modification) in 5.1, making it necessary to
# determine if we are using gcc, and if so, what version because the proposed
# solution uses a nonstandard option.

+# gcc developers chose to ignore the problems with this, and summarized those
