From a version of imake.c I have here:

#if defined(sun) || defined(hpux) || defined(AIXV3)
#define REDUCED_TO_ASCII_SPACE
#endif
#ifdef REDUCED_TO_ASCII_SPACE
int   InRule = FALSE;
#endif

/*
 * Some versions of cpp reduce all tabs in macro expansion to a single
 * space.  In addition, the escaped newline may be replaced with a
 * space instead of being deleted.  Blech.
 */
#ifndef REDUCED_TO_ASCII_SPACE
#define KludgeOutputLine(arg)
#define KludgeResetRule()
#endif

Find out what version of imake your're using.  I've been told that the
version on the Xtape works when compiled straight off the tape..
