   Well, not really.  A modern C preprocessor may allow white
space before as well as after the "#", but I believe that
it's still line-oriented, not token-oriented.  If someone can
demonstrate a successful use of multiple CPP directives on
one line, then I'd like to see it.

   True or not, around here, "help CC Language_topics
Preprocessor" still says:

       The preprocessor directives begin with a number sign
       (#) and do not end with a semicolon.  The number sign
       must appear in the first column of the source line.
