As long as one can access "the proprocessor" via a command line option
(or whatever) I don't think it matters much if it is a *separate program*
or not.  There are many many applications that use the C preprocessor that
are not C programs.  There is even a "calendar" program that uses the
C preprocessor.

If I couldn't access the preprocessor separately from the rest of the
compilation then I'll just keep the preprocessor I already use.
