Hi,

I am trying to compile a C program, but unfortunately the code contains
some macros that expand to very long lines - longer than 512, which is
the default record size for the output file created by the preprocessor.
This cuts symbol names in random places, and then the compiler complains
about unknown symbols.

According to the docs (HP C/iX Reference Manual) I can use the option
-W,-Csize to change this behaviour, but I get these messages when I try:

CPPANSI.PUB.SYS: illegal option -- 1
cpp: error 1100755848: Illegal option to cpp.
CPPANSI.PUB.SYS: illegal option -- 0
cpp: error 1100755848: Illegal option to cpp.
CPPANSI.PUB.SYS: illegal option -- 2
cpp: error 1100755848: Illegal option to cpp.
CPPANSI.PUB.SYS: illegal option -- 4
cpp: error 1100755848: Illegal option to cpp.
    CCOMXL.PUB.SYS;INFO="-Aa -DDTL_MPE -Wp,-C1024 ";PARM=7
Program terminated in an error state. (CIERR 976)

Unfortunately I don't know MPE well enough to see what I do wrong; but
it is probably something very simple. When I try to run cpp directly from
the command line with the same option, it still gives me these errors.
