No, the problem is in the source itself.

Whoever wrote the package, didn't understand how to use the C preprocessor:

#if A || B

requires that both A and B have to be defined and have integer values.  
If either A or B is undefined, then this will fail (as it should).

Problem is, they don't always take care to make sure all values are defined.
