You _do_ need to pre-process. Witness the following:

@interface NSWindow : NSResponder
#if MAC_OS_X_VERSION_MAX_ALLOWED >= MAC_OS_X_VERSION_10_5
<NSAnimatablePropertyContainer, NSUserInterfaceValidations>
#else
<NSUserInterfaceValidations>
#endif
{
     /*All instance variables are private*/
...

It breaks the HOC parser.

I'll be waiting anxiously.

Maybe I can merge my changes when you are ready. What are your  
improvements to the interface generator?

	Thanks, Joel
