I hereby revoke my suggestion that the preprocessor should suppress blank
lines and use #line instead. In a typically homocentric fashion, I
neglected to realize that even though it is more difficult for *ME* to
read a preprocessor output with many blank lines, it is trivially easy
for the compiler lexical analyzer to ignore them, since a "blank line"
is only one byte long. Thanks to those who pointed this out.
