Not necessarily.  It can simply evaluate it with each configuration
to be generated and the result for each compared.  Build a list of
sources with per-configuration activation marks.  Use that to do
the actual generation.  This intermediate list/set/map may be needed
internally to do post-genex/per-config source file lookup anyway.

I don't remember ;)

No, that just defines a string literal that we can't switch off.
I think it would be a source-specific generated macro name.
