I have looked at the question.
First point is that the preprocessor is intended to be run as part of
other tools so does not produce a stand alone preprocessor. However
one may compile it to produce a stand alone executable.
Then one encounters a problem, it does not compile because there are
macros STD_MACROS and STD_ASSERT which are undefined. I have checked the
problem is the same under Linux, maybe this works under Solaris or
whatever. I have replaced that by /usr/include, but assertions don't
work, so i have disabled them. Anyways with the following patch,
one gets a preprocessor ucpp that seems to work OK.
niobe% diff Makefile.new Makefile
81c81
< STAND_ALONE = -DSTAND_ALONE

The *.new files are the files i have modified.
