I had no idea that identifiers that begin with _[_A-Z] were reserved, 
but if they really are, I think it is sane to replace them, at least for 
macros use as "header guards", which, I guess, nobody uses outside the 
header files themselves.
As for the patch itself, it adds a 32-character random-like suffix to 
all identifiers. I think this is really ugly, and I can see no good 
reason for this...
