Comment (by eschnett):
The content of this file seems boilerplate, and it should be easy enough to split this file into one file per thorn.
The reason why this file exists is likely that it translates between C and Fortran names; C uses structures to store parameters, while Fortran uses common blocks, and the #defines in this file implement the Fortran name mangling scheme. I assume that this file is generated by Perl code, depending on the auto-detected Fortran name mangling scheme.
Of course, re-instating excluding this file will also work just fine, assuming it doesn't break Steve's Eclipse project.
