Guess you didn't get my email in time...
This isn't the right check. You only need to check for '\NULL[\s\n]';
the whitespace immediately after \NULL is what causes problems. The
same check should be performed for \ABC, \UNIX, \POSIX, \ASCII, \Cpp,
\C, \EOF, \infinity, and \plusminus (I think that's the complete
list).
