I started to port a GNU program to MSDOS (I don't say what, since I don't
like to receive any "mail me" messages until it is finished) using what I
think is newest version of DJGPP version of GNU C. I received several warning
messages ``Unrecognized excape sequence "\f"'' etc. When I compiled a C++
program using option -E, output contained following first line:

# 1 ".\font.cc" 1

Question is: Why did the preprocessor add the ".\", when compiler does not
like them ?
