I agree that RTEMS should move toward the method that I prefer.
But to minimize the number of changes that Vipul makes that need to be reviewed
(by both himself and others) I think he should just change the "#define OPTION
1" to "#define OPTION". The RTEMS style guide can be updated to prefer the
"#if" over "#ifdef" directive and additional changes can be made in the future.
If the additional changes fall within the scope of what Vipul is working on now
("Updated Legacy code") then I definitely think it should be changed to be done
the way that I like.
