For generating src/speedtest.h, try a sequence of command-line options
until (or unless) one of them works:
-dM: gcc, clang and derived compilers, icc classic
-xdumpmacros: Sun Studio (writes to stderr!)
-qshowmacros: IBM XL classic
-PD: MSVC (usable with a wrapper such as cccl from the SWIG project)
Because Sun Studio -xdumpmacros unconditionally writes to stderr,
capture stderr output instead of sending it to /dev/null. This is
perfectly safe, even in the presence of stray stderr output, because:
1. speedgen ignores input that is not of the form #define B<number>
2. even if a line of that format would somehow spuriously appear,
the only outcome is that the generated C code will probe for a few
more macros.
