Hi Hiroki,

Worked on my machine.

I think the problem is that you are not passing this to the compiler:
-D MYNAME="macrotest"

Rather, I think you are passing this to the compiler:
-D MYNAME=macrotest

Depending on your shell, you may need to escape the quotes, such as one of these two ways:
-D MYNAME=\"macrotest\"
-D MYNAME='"macrotest"'

OTHERWISE, I suspect, your shell is processing (stripping) the quotes.

HTH,
--Eljay
