 * Macro arguments used in concatenation or stringification won't be expanded.

 * |FOO| before doing whatever |NS_L| needs to do to it) a helper macro needs
 * to be inserted in between to allow the macro argument to expand.
 * See "3.10.6 Separate Expansion of Macro Arguments" of the CPP manual for a
