I am having this same issue recently also. If I have tracked it down
correctly, either ymake or ymake-filter is using cpp. It seems that
older versions of cpp was assuming that any line beginning with a "#"
was a comment if not followed by a valid cpp command. The newer versions
of GNU cpp seem to be generating an error in this case.
And the yMakefile's are full of comments! I have not looked yet to see
if there is a command line switch to go back to the old behavior.
Is ymake used for anything else but the "#include" command? If not, most
recent make commands do have their own "include" capability, as does GNU
make, which can be installed on any machine. This would greatly simplify
the NCARG build process.
