if you aim for current c++ only then you need
even more ifdefs (#if __cplusplus > ..).

c++03 requires an integral const expr.,
integral const expr must be usable in #if.
c++11 quietly changed that.
in this case that works out though: undefined
identifiers are 0 in #if, so #if __null works
as expected.
stringification is probably not a valid argument.
