__func__ is not, but __FUNCTION__ is available (which I think is
equivalent).

A potential workaround for your varargs macros is to do something like:

#ifdef _DEBUG
void _SetDebugInfo(MpeChar* file, MpeChar* func, int line, unsigned
flags);
void _DebugPrint(char* fmt, ...);
#define MPE_SHELL_ERROR_LOG _SetDebugInfo(__FILE__, __FUNCTION__,
__LINE__, MPE_SHELL_LOG_FLAG_ERROR), _DebugPrint
#else
#define MPE_SHELL_ERROR_LOG __noop
#endif

this is not threadsafe and not a 1:1 replacement for your current code,
so beware.
