OK. A comment would be good. Thank you for the clarification. It's been
a while since I needed to use anything like that myself. The code I
deal with on a regular basis is never built-in, so I missed how that
worked these days. Now that I looked at the headers, I see how that
works to add the prefix depending on the build type.
