if i compile a library with a certain build flag
there are times when i would like to reflect that flag
into the header file for the library, so that larger
compilations involving the library are built the same
way.

ie. something like

---library.h---
#ifdef BUILD_THIS_WAY
#text "#define BUILD_THIS_WAY"
#endif

i could not find anything in the gnu cpp docs.
but does anyone know for sure there *is* a way?

thanks.
