Subject:  SigParser now rejects `ifdef
SigParser previously ignored `ifdef statements in files it parsed, but
now produces this message:

Define or directive not defined: `ifdef

and terminates the calling script.

The previous behavior is more desirable because my use of SigParser is
chiefly to collect module port information, and embedded ifdef/endif
sections in the code are not really an issue.

I'm not sure how to fix this. I can easily add something to just ignore
all `{anythings} but this is insufficient, as the word after `ifdef will
get fed to the parser and it will blow up. The new parser unfortunately
needs to have fully valid syntax.

Is there a reason why you can't just use the preprocessor?

OK, using the preprocessor fixed this. Thanks!
