Thanks to all of you who sent me mail about how to identify
the predefined variables associated with C compilers.

The overwhelming consensus is to do "strings /lib/cpp" and
search the output for likely candidates.  Put the candidates
into a *.c file and run "cc -E foo.c" to determine the values
for the variables.
