This is amazing! It should solve the disappearing of enum-like
definitions in code. I encountered this in Raylib. It has
colors defined as macros:
```c
#define WHITE (Color){255, 255, 255, 255}
```
I preprocessed the file and all color definitions were gone. I
had to redefine them manually.
Nuklear does the same too for their Flags.
Same situation here, with RayLib!
I really really like the way importC is improving, kudos to
Walter!

Give it a try, it should work now!

D templates with C semantics just falls out of the way ImportC was implemented. Indeed, I've seen that the other day, the [PR](https://github.com/dlang/dmd/pull/15871/files) only modifies the parser.
