Bug Description

There is a bug in the Scintilla library which parses C, C++ code (for syntax highlighting).
This line of C preprocessor code raises a fatal exception when it is entered in a
C or C++ file opened by SciTE:

#if defined(NAME value

The bug was introduced with Hg changeset 3306:73a86726763b (July 2010)
and only recently fixed (November 2011), so the latest SciTE packages
(from 2.20 up to 3.0.1) contain the bug.

Changeset 3944:933933c7a390 fixes the bug.
