I somewhat got the impression that using  C++ style comments (//) are related
to worse the problem. But I must confess I didn't dig deep enough to contribute
anything substancial. Perhaps the problem is a misunderstanding of ecpg and
cpp.

I was confused by the blank lines following or preceding a #line statement
every time I looked at it. This should be not necessary.

While talking about warnings: ecpg warns about NULLIF being not implemented
yet. But actually it works (for me).
