In the current standard (sorry, I can't give you a C90 reference), pp-number actually references identifier-nondigit, which in turn refers to nondigit. Both identifier-nondigit and nondigit are defined in 6.4.2.1p1. nondigit is almost what you're suggesting, but it also include underscores. identifier-nondigit also allows universal-character-name, (a Unicode-related addition to C99), and other implementation-defined characters. The intent was for implementations to allow, at least as a option, writing identifiers using characters native to languages that can't be written using only the C basic character set. > ...

It qualifies as a preprocessing-token, but it doesn't qualify as a token - it does not parse correctly for any of the token types listed in 6.4p1. As a result, it is a constraint violation (6.4p2) for which a diagnostic message is required. -- James Kuyper
