In the long run, I think it'll be simplest to prevent people from calling
cpp except via gcc.  This shouldn't be hard; we dig up the shell script
someone posted a long time ago and install it as $prefix/bin/cpp.  I'd send
a patch for this, but I can't find the script.  It was fairly involved. 
Does anyone know why the trivial

#! /bin/sh
exec gcc -E ${1+"$@"}

won't work?
