-fdollar-in-identifiers switch which enables '$' in identifiers

    library Cello: http://libcello.org/ which uses `$` and several
    variations of as macros.

    There is also RayLanguage which also uses it as a macro for a kind of
    ObjC style message passing: https://github.com/kojiba/RayLanguage

    This is a patch from Daniel Holden.
