Description pzgyuanf 2012-07-20 01:12:06 UTC 
Hi,
Don't know whether it is an issue or feature, 
the preprocess body between '#ifdef'/#if defined  '#endif' is parsed as comment.

You can see it paste the following codesnip into a *.c/h file:

#ifdef TRUE
#undef TRUE     /* the line we are discussing */
#endif


#if defined(__sun)
#include <sys/file.h>           /* Has definition of FASYNC */  /* the line we are discussing */
#endif

This is the feature. All "dead" preprocessor blocks are colored as "dead code".
It allows to see which part of code is treated as compiler's preprocessor as skipped.
Exact color can be configured in Tools->Options->Fonts&Colors.
Choose C/C++/Header languages and modify "Inactive Preprocessor Block" color if needed
