Martin,
You may use GCC flags -E and -dD to achieve that in compile-time
rather than run-time. For example,
gcc -E -dD program.c -o program.e
outputs program.e, the post-processed version of program.c. -E tells
gcc to preprocess the file but not compile/build it, and -dD tells gcc
to output the values of macros.
Cheers,
