[avr-gcc-list] What does "error: expected expression before '/' token" really mean? |

Can someone tell me please what this error really means?:
"error: expected expression before '/' token"
Googling says it is from using C++ style comments, in C code, which is
not the case here.
I can find no place where there actually *is* a '/' token in relation
to the error:
avr-gcc (AVR_8_bit_GNU_Toolchain_3.4.4_1229) 4.8.1
[GCC] : Compiling C File: "Version/version.c" to
"[../Firmware_Project/Project/Object/]
../Firmware_Project/Project/Object/Version/version.o"
J:\APPS/AVR_TC_344_1229/bin/avr-gcc [see command line below]
<command-line>:0:11: error: expected expression before '/' token
Version/version.c:25:48: note: in expansion of macro 'MODEL_STR'
const char Model_Prj_str[] VERSION_INFO = MODEL_STR;
/* Model */
^
This is how MODEL_STR has been defined for a very long time (changed
the project name for posting here):
-DMODEL_STR=\"Project\"
This has something to do with the build system and not the actual
source code, as the build system is what was recently changed.
The error goes away if I take the multiplication out of this line:
CDEFS += -DALARM_SET_POINT_MAX=(15U*60U)
so it just reads as :
CDEFS += -DALARM_SET_POINT_MAX=15
That definition is not used, nor even included in anyway outside of
the command line, in the file that is complaining about the '/' token.
I can invoke the same error by adding parentheses around this line:
CDEFS += -DSCRN_Y_BYTES=$(SCRN_HEIGHT)/8U
to yield:
CDEFS += -DSCRN_Y_BYTES=($(SCRN_HEIGHT)/8U)
This is the compile command line, split on spaces due to its length to show it
here, normally it would be one LONG line:
