      The new conformant preprocessor is feature complete in Visual Studio 16.5.

      Try updating to use it instead of the traditional preprocessor (which is well known to be non-conforming in various ways). This would bring VS-based usage more in line with other platforms in this area, and remove the need for some workarounds for the traditional preprocessor's behavior.
