Hm, what about modules that use #if constructs in the Include:
statement?  E.g. mbchar:

Include:
#if HAVE_WCHAR_H
#include "mbchar.h"
#endif

I believe it would be simpler to allow the 'Include:' section to
contain any valid CPP (or even C) language construct that results in
declaring the appropriate prototypes and data types required for the
module.  Only permitting a file name seems overly restrictive.

I didn't follow this entire thread, so I may be missing something,
though.
