 Version 1.3.18 (In progress)
 ============================
+03/07/2003: beazley
+            Fixed a variety of subtle preprocessor problems reported by
+            Sebastien Recio.
+
+            (a) Empty preprocessor values no longer generate "bad constant
+            value" errors.  For example:
+
+                  #define FOO
+                  #define FOO BAR
+
+            (b) Macro names can now span multiple lines (technically valid,
+            although questionable practice).  For example:
+
+                  #define A_LONG_MACRO_\
+                  NAME 42
+
+            (c) Whitespace is no longer required before certain macro values.
+            For example:
+
+                  #define FOO"Hello"
+                  #define BAR\
+                  "Hello"
