A 500-line function? Yikes, what an eyesore. When you have to include
#end comments in order to visually match things up, that should be a
smell that your code is excessively complex. It took me a lot of
scrolling up and down just to figure out what the scopes of the
variables were.

    def generate_lines():
        nonlocal input_line
        while True:
            try:
                # Note input_line appears to be an iterator, not a string
                # as suggested by the name.
                yield next(input_line)
            except StopIteration:
                if include_stack:
                    input_line = include_stack.pop()
                else:
                    return

    for line in generate_lines():
        if not include_stack:
            linenr += 1
        if ... line contains something special ...:
            ... process special line ...
        else:
            ... process regular line ...

Much simpler than the nested while loop hell above, and not a single
break needed (if you don't count the return, that is; in any case each
loop has a single exit point). I'd be tempted to refactor input_line
and include_stack into some sort of input context class and make
generate_lines a method of the class in order to avoid having those
variables be (effectively) global, but my goal was to keep this as
close to the original in design as possible.
