concat operator not required, generates warning in gcc 3.2

cp->pl: please have a look

vanish from my intray

REsetting priority.  It will crash a gcc 3.3 build.

I could apply that patch easily, but don't you think the gcc people
should make their preprocessor behave standard conforming ? Or can you
tell me in what way the statement in question is invalid ? I mean what
do they choose to remove next, #define ?

The message is 'not a valid preprocessor token'.  It is correct to the
c standard and gcc is extremely standards compliant.  Extreme is used
here for obvious reasons.

will apply

applied in CWS vcl08. I still think the gcc people should see that
they get their act together; the file in question is definitely not C
but C++ and the master himself tells us that the ## preprocesor
operator is perfectly valid (on p.609 2nd ed. of The C++ Programmin
Language, Bjarne Stroustrup).

verified in vcl08
