Maybe do chmod +x m.cpp and have the first line read
//usr/bin/env vim "$0"

I am unsure why you have this obsession with doing weird things to C++ code.

You have been advised many times to either get yourself a more powerful preprocessor or write your own program to translate between the weird C++ variants you want and C++ you can actually compile.

All the strange things you are trying to do can be fixed by doing just that.

In this case, I cannot fathom why you have a C++ source file (designed to be fed into a compiler) with a shebang directive indicating it is actually an executable file loading itself into VIM. Those are orthogonal objectives. The latter objective is just plain odd.
