Perhaps it makes sense to scan hackage to find all the different CPP idioms that are actually used in Haskell code, if it is a small/well-defined set it may be worth writing a simple custom preprocessor.
+1, I'll wager that the vast majority of usages are just for version range checks. If there are packages that require more, they could just keep using the system-cpp or, I, guess cpphs if it gets baked into GHC. Like you, I'd want to see real evidence that that's actually worth the effort/complication. Regards,
