Thanks! This is very nice!  I've done a little more research and
discovered that there's also a __COUNTER__ macro that is available
in gcc 4.3+.  Before I realized that it was only available in gcc
4.3, I wrote this little macro:

#define _CONCAT1(a, b) a##b
#define CONCAT(a, b) _CONCAT1(a, b)

#ifdef __COUNTER__
# define UNIQUIFY(prefix) CONCAT(prefix, __COUNTER__)
#else
# define UNIQUIFY(prefix) CONCAT(prefix, __LINE__)
#endif

However, this could lead to code might compile on gcc 4.3+, but
not compile prior, so this is bad, right?
