weird. it seems like there is some mysterious preprocessor magic going on...

are you trying to compile vanilla pd or a special version of pd?

what is the exact compiler command that gets called to compile x_misc.c? 
(in your code snippet the 1st part is missing; it should start with "cc" 
or "gcc")

try running the preprocessor on the x_misc.c and send us the output [1]

[1] on my machine the call to the compiler looks like:
cc -g -O2 -DPD  -Wall -W -Wstrict-prototypes -Wno-unused 
-Wno-parentheses -Wno-switch  -DDL_OPEN -DPA_USE_OSS -DUNIX -DUNISTD 
         -DUSEAPI_OSS         -I../portaudio/pa_common 
-I../portaudio/pablio         -I../portmidi/pm_common 
-I../portmidi/pm_linux     -fno-strict-aliasing -DPA_USE_ALSA 
-DUSEAPI_ALSA -D_LARGEFILE64_SOURCE -DINSTALL_PREFIX=\"/usr/local\"  -c 
-o ../obj/x_misc.o x_misc.c

so i call the preprocessor with:
cpp -g -O2 -DPD  -Wall -W -Wstrict-prototypes -Wno-unused 
-Wno-parentheses -Wno-switch  -DDL_OPEN -DPA_USE_OSS -DUNIX -DUNISTD 
         -DUSEAPI_OSS         -I../portaudio/pa_common 
-I../portaudio/pablio         -I../portmidi/pm_common 
-I../portmidi/pm_linux     -fno-strict-aliasing -DPA_USE_ALSA 
-DUSEAPI_ALSA -D_LARGEFILE64_SOURCE -DINSTALL_PREFIX=\"/usr/local\"  -o 
x_misc.m x_misc.c

(in short: replace "cc" with "cpp" and "../obj/x_misc.o" with "x_misc.m" 
and remove the "-c" flag;
the interesting output is now in x_misc.m)

you can run these commands from the cmdline in pd/src/
