Details

I need to

#define MYFUNMACRO(stuff)  blah blah blah stuff etc etc etc

and it seems preprocessor.pl can't do this. And that stack package voodoo looks scary so I don't think I'm fixing it myself.
Before writing a patch, please indicate precisely how this feature would work. Please remember that you don't have a tokenizer, so a C/C++-style preprocessor (which can do tokenization) is not an option.

I'm tempted to WONTFIX this, since I don't see how we would use it in Mozilla.
