Hmm... This does not match the "doc:" prefix of the patch.

I don't think this is correct. This omission of the single quote somehow
looks like it's done on purpose. I don't build using this system, but I
tried making some silly code like this in another file, which I actually
do use:

#if 0
#error might or mightn't work
#endif

But this works:

#error "might or mightn't work"
