  It is in a file called "tree-check.h" that is autogenerated as part of the
build process.  You have to compile gcc (using --enable-checking, although that
is the default IIRC), and you will find it in the build directory.

  There are quite a lot of important definitions that end up in generated files
in the build dir, and the source code of gcc cannot be considered complete
without reading them too!

    cheers,
