Indeed. I'm often confused by those unpredictable underscores and capitals when writing C code. 

Personally I agree with Carlos' opinion that version identifiers should be case insensitive, or there should be one single convention: either camel cased or adopting the corresponding macro in C. I'll appreciate camel case since the latter is often a mess.
