Since you asked:

This means the preprocessed .i (or .ii for c++) file that exists
after cpp runs on the file.  There are a couple of ways of getting
this file:

1)  use -E in the compile line above and redirect the output
to a file

2)  use -save-temps in the compile line above, the .i/.ii files
will be part of the files left.

The easiest is perhaps -save-temps.  You can also add it to a 
make command line like this:

make CFLAGS="-save-temps" <target>

where <target> is the original target of the makefile, e.g. "all"
