I have seen many references to blue paint in this newsgroup.
Something to do with self-referencing macros, I think.

I recently obtained a copy of the ANSI-C standard, and one of the
first things I looked for was, of course, blue paint.
I could find no mention of it.

Can someone explain blue paint?  Is it in the standard?
If so, where?  If not, where did it come from, and where did it go?
