 i tried that but it doesn't work consistently with the newer prescan semantics. 
 for example, if i did this:
 
 #include COMP_INC(me, mips/hello.h)
 
 you'd think it'd expand with the below method:
 
 #include "me/include/mips/hello.h"
 
 unfortunately, mips is a predefined macro.  so it expands to "1".  is there a
 work around for this without having to undefine it?
