Oh, I like that. Much better.

It avoids all the issues with comments etc, and because it's not using
__COUNTER__ as a string, it doesn't need the preprocessor games with
double expansion either.

So yeah, that seems like a nice solution to the issue, and should make
the barriers all unique to the compiler.
