Alas, this isn't going to work.  These definitions are within a macro,
which is effectively on a single C++ line; you can't go putting an ifdef
in the middle of a line.

The only ways I can think of to get around this will break the API, and
possibly also the ABI.  So, I'm going to have to defer this fix to a
major release.  In the meantime, simply #include the header containing
the SSQLS definition in only one place.  I realize this restricts how
you can use MySQL++...but realize that all of us who are using SSQLS now
must be doing this already, and it doesn't seem to bother us any!  :)
