You don't want token pasting.  You want string concatenation, that
happens by simply having two strings one after another.  Take out ##
from the macro and it should work.

Note that this question is inappropriate for this forum, that is
devoted to the development *of* GCC, not *with* GCC.  Use
gcc-help@gcc.gnu.org instead, and make sure you read the documentation
and search for the answer to your question on the web before posting
it.
