CPP is the tool of choice if actually processing source files implicitly
as part of compiler calls. Using cpp for textual substitutions isn't
necessarily a good idea.

Using any other standardized tool designed for this purpose would more
portable and easier to use in longer terms. I'd chose sed for this task.
