I guess this:

#ifdef notyet
#define brokenstr "test\<iamaspace>
#endif

whops, #endif got eaten.  gcc does the same, however.

Are you unfriendly by principle or is this just general 
I-don't-like-the-state-of-the-world grumpiness?

Of course I don't need your permissions, I don't even care about your 
opinion.  I thought that maybe there are more people than me hanging 
around on the list who are actually interested in having a nice 
compiler, rather than waiting for somebody to "fix" any current one.
