 unifdef-1.171-10.el6 (FEDORA-EPEL-2011-3275)
 Unifdef tool for removing ifdef'd lines
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Update Information:

Unifdef is useful for removing ifdefed lines from a file while otherwise
leaving the file alone. Unifdef acts on #ifdef, #ifndef, #else, and #endif
lines, and it knows only enough about C and C++ to know when one of these
is inactive because it is inside a comment, or a single or double quote.
