That is not a sufficient reason to trunc my C lines. I don't mind about
the sql ones (in which TAILLE_TAMPON becomes 25) but about C lines in
which errno becomes longer stuff, or CELL_VALUE(x,y) which expands to 
lines that break the 255 limit.

If the C code is correct, the esqlc is broken, and the solution of the
support is not a solution.
