We are using echo -e, so the \n in the string being echo'd are interpreted. As -e is not POSIX and dash doesn't provide it, we use a strange /usr/bin/env echo -e construct hoping that whatever non-builtin echo is first in the search path supports -e. As the new lines are just used to separate CPP directives, we can just pass the directives as $(CPP) flags. This has the same result, but is portable and avoids NixOS complaining when building barebox.
