I think your approach is wrong. You should not put the 'end' directive to
more than one place in your source code. You could use #ifdef / #ifndef to
leave out certain parts of your source code but leave the end directive to
the very end.

Btw, you can try "-DSOME_SYMBOL=3Dend" or "#SOME_SYMBOL end", and then just
put the SOME_SYMBOL if you insist with your approach.
