To get a full list of possibly-predefined symbols on
a particular installation of gcc, you can do something
like
tr ' ' '\012' < /usr/lib/gcc-lib/i386-redhat-linux/3.2/specs | grep D | sed 's/.*-D//' | sort -u
but it's better to do autoconf-style feature tests than
#if operatingsystem
style tests, isn't it?
