I'm not against _sane_ use of the preprocessor, and this looks sane.  However 
it is traditional for #defines to be UPPER_CASE to make them easier to spot.

I am not, however, going to check this in until I hear from Erik about whether 
or not he wants to give you an svn login of your very own to love and hug and 
squeeze and call george.

Hey Erik!

(Hey Cool-aid!  Go get Erik!  For the non-english speakers in our audience, or 
anyone under the age of 20: don't worry about it.  If you really must know, I 
just invoked a metaphorical anthropormorphic punch bowl and asked it to 
deliver a message, at the expense of some property damage.  I said don't 
worry about it.  It didn't make sense in the commercials either...)
