I am sorry, I was unclear:

I meant the introduction of an additional macro, for names with
underscores:

In the ordinary case:

#define FNAME(x,y) y##_
#define FNAMEU(x,y) y##_

and if embedded underscores introduce two underscores at the end:

#define FNAME(x,y) y##_
#define FNAMEU(x,y) y##__

Yes, I will do that (one last thing to check is the issue of tmpfile()).
Sending the patches in the format you asked should be no problem.
