mcedit: wrong highlighting in presence of "#define \\" (i. e. preprocessor directives)

[safinaskar]

The following code

#define a b //
int
main (void)

highlights wrongly. I. e. "int" highlights as comment. But gcc 4.9.2 in C mode doesn't think this is a comment

From #3969

#endif // preprocessor macro with one-line comment
int code; /* <-- this line is colorized incorrectly */
int code2; /* <-- next line is colorized properly */

/* this preprocessor macro is not colorized,
   when there is whitespace before '#'
   and the next line is not empty */

  #if not_colorized
int code3;

/* this preprocessor macro is colorized properly,
   the next line is empty */

  #if colorized

int code4;
