Wrap the message of the #error directive, based on the following (all excerpts from C99):
- 5.1.1.2 Translation phases, p1, phase 2: > Each instance of a backslash character (\) immediately followed by a > new-line character is deleted, splicing physical source lines to form > logical source lines. [...]" - 5.1.1.2 Translation phases, p1, phase 3: > The source file is decomposed into preprocessing tokens [...] and > sequences of white-space characters (including comments). [...] New-line > characters are retained. Whether each nonempty sequence of white-space > characters other than new-line is retained or replaced by one space > character is implementation-defined. - 6.10.5 Error directive, p1: > A preprocessing directive of the form > > # error pp-tokens opt new-line > > causes the implementation to produce a diagnostic message that includes > the specified sequence of preprocessing tokens. This means that the #error directive does not need a string literal (preprocessing tokens are a lower-level concept), and that we can break the sequence of pp-tokens to multiple physical lines with backslashes, and that an implementation may or may not squeeze our multiple space characters (even before the patch, after the full stop!) into single space characters. In practice, when forcing the #error post-patch, gcc prints (not wrapped here intentionally): > handle.c:29:2: error: #error These bindings will not work with Python 2. > Recompile using Python 3 or use ./configure --disable-python. > 29 | #error \ > | ^~~~~ IOW, gcc does squeeze the space characters.
