Yes, I see the problem. I can't think of a reason why we must have
prologues/epilogues inside pre/post so I am going to change this for
the next release.

Unfortunately, the only workaround is to temporarily (until the next
version of ODB) disable precompiled headers for generated files.
Alternatively, I can build you a pre-release binary of the ODB
compiler with the fix.
