We have just started using the Gnu C PreProcessor to preprocess Fortran 
files as well as some ASCII files used for database structure definition.
I notice that when CPP conditionally compiles and removes a segment of the
code, it replaces the removed code with blank lines. 

I'd be interested to know if anyone else has encountered the same 
problem  and how they solved it.

Thanks.
