:__func__ is a new feature in C99. It is an alias for the gcc feature
:__FUNCTION_NAME. Both give the name of the current function as a string.

You mean __FUNCTION__ ?
__FILE__ and __LINE__ have been standard for a long time. The
obviously missing __FUNCTION__ was added by GCC many years ago, but it was
a while before it's use in defines in header (.h) files was dealt with
properly. I wish these stupid standards committees would just choose
something that people are already using rather then make up new names!
