At the suggestion of someone I double-checked the C standard and it does 
not require the # sign be in column 1 (turns out some old compilers do, 
but ISO C does not).  So I am for keeping the tabbing then, but I would 
like to move the # sign next to the macro statement instead of being in 
column 1.  Does that work for people?

Since we are requiring C89 compliance I figure this will won't be a big 
deal, but we all know some people still use funky compilers on Python.
