Ah! Beautiful! :-)

Ah! You are right, looks much cleaner! I forgot about your work
regarding the conditional registration of codecs, which used the same
move-work-from-preprocessor-to-compiler trick :)

I remember reading about this some years ago, but never saw anyone use
it before the codec registration cleanup patches. One thing I'm
wondering about though, could there be compilers that are stupid enough
to just keep the code there even if the " if(0 and" is there?

Excellent! I couldn't image that you'd fix them all at once :)

Thanks! :)
