[OT] The end of CCCP

[Chip Salzenberg]

According to Zack Weinberg:
> Mark Mitchell asked that I remove the old implementation of the C
> preprocessor entirely.  This patch does that.  Alas, along with 15,000

And as the end is announced:

  cvs server: warning: ./gcc/cccp.c is not (any longer) pertinent

/me hums the National Hymn of the Soviet Union and ponders the odd
appropriateness of that warning.
