which is why instructions for a computer should be kept short.
In Knuth's WEB there is @d, not @define, @i, not @include, etc.
Likewise, library prefix should not clutter the content.  Its
main purpose is to instruct a computer where it is supposed to
look for an object's definition.  For a reader of a patch
"cyclone/" means no more than "nonstandard/".

why the irony?  I proposed cc as an option, after all.  But ok,
I can live without it, although it is only one little, simple to
remember, hard-to-misspell abbreviation with a slight pun in it.
