bug#42581: Wrong C++ indentation when using class MY_DLL_EXPORT_MACRO foo

[Stephane A <a.stephane.fsw@gmail.com>]

Hello,

The noise macro works for indentation, but it seems to cause the syntax
highlight to not be done correctly when opening a file. I must edit the
file to force refresh so that grammatical elements are detected.

Regards,

Stéphane
