I was surprised to see macro definitions in the output of gcc -E -g3 (see below). Is that behavior by design or is it a bug? (I haven't seen anything about it in the manual, other than what -g/leve/ mentions about debugger support for macro expansion).
This is by design as we need to keep track of macros so when you are trying to reproduce a failure with -g3, you have them in the preprocessed source.
