A friend recently was modifying the source to a program by using
#ifdef's to delineate between MAC and other systems. He erroneously
used code like the following:
#ifdef MAC
code...
#elsif whatever
code
#else
code...
#endif
The problem here is that LSC doesn't support #elsif. However, the
compiler accepted the program and just generated wrong code. I assume
it *should* have given an error along the lines of 'illegal
preprocessor directive.'
