(C++) Strange error message "invalid #-name"

[Gerald Pfeifer <pfeifer@dbai.tuwien.ac.at>]

With current CVS I am getting a new and somewhat strange error message

  alphard[183]% gccvs x.cc -o x
  x.cc: In method `class string NameSpace::get()':
  x.cc:15: invalid #-line

for the following heavily distilled snippet:

---- cut ----
#include <string>

struct NameSpace 
{
    string get() 
      {
#ifdef NEVER
	// FIXME: As soon as <sstream> works, use this:

#else

	// workaround
	// 20 chars is enough for 64bit uints

#endif
      }
  };
---- cut ----

A full log is at the end of this message, the source file x.cc and
pre-processed source x.ii.gz are MIME attached.
