Autoconf generated the script in question (./configure). The dia
developers are not responsible for this.

I guess, not.

Maybe /lib/cpp is used as a last resort, and ./configure couldn't find
cpp elsewhere on your system. I wonder why it actually tried to use it
when it didn't exist.

In a minimal Debian system, dia builds fine without /lib/cpp.
