moc is smarter in Qt 5: it expands macros.

But the recommendation stands: do not #if (of any kind) anything that isn't 
#defined in the same source, in a header next to the one being compiled, or 
passed as -D in the command-line.

That means: don't hide signals and slots with #if, even for deprecation.
