I don't actually consider this a bug. By the same token, it is impossible for library A to use macros from libraries B and C which happen to have chosen the same *primary* syntax keyword: if you import "gazinta" from B with one definition, and "|ga\x7A;inta|" from C with another definition, you are screwed. -- And through this revolting graveyard of the universe the muffled, maddening beating of drums, and thin, monotonous whine of blasphemous flutes from inconceivable, unlighted chambers beyond Time; the detestable pounding and piping whereunto dance slowly, awkwardly, and absurdly the gigantic tenebrous ultimate gods --the blind, voiceless, mindless gargoyles whose soul is Nyarlathotep.
