   Preferred syntax (which, please use in Hurd code), is to put spaces
   around the ## concatenation operator.

Well, that doesn't work anymore.  Here is a recent checkin by Marcus that

        * version.h.in (STANDARD_HURD_VERSION): Remove EXTRA argument,
        because cpp 3.0 is not removing any token before ##args that is
        not a single comma, in order to be more C99 compliant.
