FYI: Another IDE include error

apparently, conditional includes always used ide identify "required" library files.  consider example:

code: [select]

#if 0
  #include <neohwserial.h>
#endif

void setup()
{
  serial.begin( 9600 );
}

void loop() {}
this seems trick ide linking in neohwserial, when condition false.  result, hardwareserial (via 'serial') conflicts incorrectly linked neohwserial.  commenting out neohwserial include removes "require" of library, , hardwareserial links in correctly:

code: [select]

#if 0
  //#include <neohwserial.h>
#endif

void setup()
{
  serial.begin( 9600 );
}

void loop() {}
sigh.  behavior might related this.  still problem in 1.6.5r2

i opened issue this.

cheers,
