Rats, Open mouth, insert foot.
It's 'backslash-CR-LF' not 'backslash-LF-CR'. So, cpp has to either
understand both kinds of 'newline' or it can (understandably) raise an
exception of some kind. I suppose it's better to warn the user that
something may be wrong than have the compiler fail later with an
apparently unrelated error caused by a fouled-up macro.
