For bonus points, add it to one of the runtime library headers :)

stdio.h, stdlib.h and crew are used in almost every C program. For 
MPLAB-C18? Why, you butcher stddef.h, of course. The rest of the RTL (or 
most of it at least) pulls this in, thus increasing the evilness :)

For additional bonus points, hide the #define in a bank of function 
definitions or other #defines.

Do not, however, expect your workmates/colleagues to be friends with you 
after this...
