Yes, well, _obviously_ index is a silly thing to #define.  Especially
before including Somebody Else's Header File.  But what am I allowed to
defined before including somebody else's header file?  stacksize, L, n,
s, len, u, tag, fn, str, filename, name?

Thank goodness for POSIX and ISO C both of which make guarantees about
what you can #define before #including one of their headers.
