There is a bug in the way gcc version 2.2.2 handles #include statements.
For example:
	#define TT(a,b) #a #b
	#include TT(./, happy.h)
should cause the compiler to include file "./happy.h" but instead gcc gives
the following error message:
	`#include' expects "fname" or <fname>
This is an important bug since the new NeXT 3.0 system uses #includes of the
above format in the system's header files.
