   | Perhaps because that file tries including other files and those are
   | not found since CALENDAR_DIR is not set (the files are in the same
   | dir).
 
 On this part, I believe that files included (if not including a
 full path name) are searched for in either CALENDAR_DIR (if given) or
 $HOME (otherwise), and also /usr/share/calendar (and most probably
 /usr/include ...)
 
 Unlike C, the directory containing the canendar file, unless it is one
 of the above, is not searched (not even for #include "file") - it can't
 be, as cpp has no idea where that would be (it is passed the calendar file
 via stdin, not via a path name arg).
 
 This is probably all bogus, when I make a patch, I'll see if I can make
 that more rational.
 
   | There is no error message though.
 
 This one I'm not sure I understand (yet), I see nothinh that should
 inhibit cpp error messages, but I'm also not sure I really understand gcc's 
 cpp.
