I believe it doesn't match those lines at all, since the regex is

/^\s*#\s*if\w*\s+(\w+)/

the first \w* matches nothing, \s+ matches the single space after if,
but the ! which comes then doesn't fit in (\w+).

I guess we have to do some regex fiddling to match both

#ifndef DEPRECATION_GUARD

and

#if !defined(DEPRECATION_GUARD) || ..
