Just to be certain I understand correctly... you did NOT type this #define into the
field of the CodeWarrior C/C++ panel which specifies the prefix file name to use, but
rather, you've added #define XYZ to the CONTENTS of the prefix file specified in the
CodeWarrior C/C++ panel... yes? For every target in the project?
Did you try putting some uncompilable garbage characters in your .h and .c files
within your #ifdef...#endif directives to see if the prefix file is being parsed
correctly or not? The compiler should complain when it hits those garbage characters
if the #define is being activated correctly.
