These are all easily fixed, and in many cases makes the code easier to
read, and thus easier to maintain.  I would rather keep -Wtraditional
in, it may spot a bug, and it helps keep the code clean and readable.

So split it into two lines.

The 'L' suffix isn't needed anyway.

Conflicts with *what* ?  It looks like there's a line missing here.

So use a constant without the high bit set (we're making it up anyway)
so that we don't *need* a 'u' suffix.

> mntent.c:864:2: warning: suggest not using #elif in traditional C

So take it out and use nested #if's

So take the '+' out of the #define.

Indented cpp commands are ugly anyway.  Unindent them.

Please make sure you have the latest sources from cvs; mine don't have
string concatenation anywhere near that line that I could find.
