 Yeah, used to be true :-)
 This seems very much to me to be a broken compiler issue.

Hmm, that has me worried a little.  I was thinking about trying to use gcc
for a (non-Linux) M68000 device.

Does the above mean that this would be problematic?

It seems to have been fixed in newer versions of gcc.
My current 4.5.1 generates only the defines I would expect
based on the supplied machine type options.
