Autoconf-like #defines in distributed header file

[just adding my 2 cents. I've ignored discussion till now.]

I just recompiled lilypnod with gcc3 and for some reason it
only now complains with .


out/version.hh:6:1: let op: "PACKAGE_NAME" redefined
In file included from /users/hanwen/usr/pkg/guile/include/libguile/__scm.h:157,
                 from /users/hanwen/usr/pkg/guile/include/libguile.h:50,
                 from /users/hanwen/usr/pkg/guile/include/guile/gh.h:50,
                 from include/lily-guile.hh:18,
                 from include/parse-scm.hh:6,
                 from lexer.ll:31:
/users/hanwen/usr/pkg/guile/include/libguile/scmconfig.h:562:1: let op: this is 
the location of the previous definition


In any case, I think this should be fixed (I'll look into the
discussion when mail.gnu.org becomes alive again.)
