The machanism guesses the language based on the source file name extension: [ralf@dea tmp]$ echo -n > c.c && mips-linux-gcc -E -dM -xassembler-with-cpp c.c | grep LANG #define __LANGUAGE_C 1 #define _LANGUAGE_C 1 #define LANGUAGE_C 1 [ralf@dea tmp]$ echo -n > c.S && mips-linux-gcc -E -dM c.S | grep LANG #define LANGUAGE_ASSEMBLY 1 #define _LANGUAGE_ASSEMBLY 1 #define __LANGUAGE_ASSEMBLY 1 [ralf@dea tmp]$ Buggy? Yes ... Ralf
