No, as long as the IDL compiler does the right thing. If I have two
files:

// a.idl
module M {
#include "b.idl"
};

// b.idl
interface I {};

and run a.idl through the C pre-processor, I get

# 1 "a.idl"
 
module M {
# 1 "b.idl" 1
 
interface I {};
# 3 "a.idl" 2

};

The # lines let the IDL compiler know about the #include, so it can
get the repoIds right.

Cheers,

Duncan.
