I can't think of a solution for that either. There would have to be at 
least one precompiler directive that both could use.

I don't know your exact objective, but you could use a batch file for 
conditional compilation, or to translate the C/C++ file on the fly right 
before compilation. I'm guessing you want to make sure that both 
compilers use the same include file, or at least the same constants that 
are defined in it.
