I'm not that knowledgeable, and def not a C apologist, but what language are you thinking of? To my eyes, that is some heavy abuse of the preprocessor in a way that I don't think almost any modern "safe" language could possibly countenance.

I read that code like he got the expressivity benefits of a lisp macro system with close-to-the-metal C speeds in like 100 lines of code. I'm curious what else could do this.
