TICKY_TICKY is the right #def to check, and it should work the straightforward way. Why doesn't
#ifdef TICKY_TICKY #define MYBUMP(ctr,n) ctr = ctr + n #else #define MYBUMP(ctr,n) /* nothing */ #endif work? As a trick, you can check and make sure TICKY_TICKY is actually defined by inserting an #error if it's not defined, and then taking a look at the failing build command.
