 I will back out my fix and see if it is still broken.  To summarize, the
 following type of command would fail:
 
 gcc -include hack.h -O2 file.cc
 
 as it would end up taking hack.h as an input file and precompile it into
 hack.hcp or something like that.  Further, hack.h wouldn't be included
 for use by file.cc
 
 I will send you a detailed example if it still fails after I back out
 the change.
 
 Cheers,
 Sean
