#ifdef based solution is going to be ugly, surely you know that. I
never made any claims about the magnitude of ugliness, I always want

If it just requires 2 or 3 #ifdef, adding them and forgetting they
existed would have been faster than this thread ;)

Fair enough! The main point of this discussion was not to convince you
but rather to get a third opinion.
Honestly, this is a very weird attitude, rather than trying to
come with hard facts, you prefer having some kind of poll and make an
arbitary uninformed decision.
