A more realistic example is:

#define pci 1

which I hit when I first tried to do it this way when I first
implemented this code (not with "pci" but a similar word).

I'll leave this up to the maintainers of the code to decide which way
they want to do it, as they are the ones that have to deal with the
fallout if something goes wrong ;-)
