Keeping the license as is seems to be important to Malcolm. So could we have an option to build GHC without cpphs and instead use it as a stand-alone external program? That would make the situation no worse than GMP.

I don't see any need for an option. Just bundle cpphs together with GHC and build/use it as an external program. AFAICT this has absolutely no licensing implications for GHC, derived from GHC or anything compiled with GHC.
Agreed, that would work. But I thought that the idea was that we wanted it actually integrated into GHC.
