Not directly related to this problem, but the common reason for doing things 
like:

  #define FEATURE_ENABLED 1
  if( FEATURE_ENABLED )
    // do something
  else
    // do something else

Is that the syntax is checked regardless of the feature being enabled or not.

Of course - your point about it relying on the compiler to optimise it away is 
correct; but I just wanted to point out that there are advantages to the if() 
method too.
