If you mean "everyone happy with a LGPL", then I would agree. But GHC and Hugs use a BSD-style license, so cpphs is not an option for them. After some googling and testing I found MCPP (http://directory.fsf.org/MCPP.html), which is a highly configurable preprocessor with a small footprint and a BSD license. Shipping this as an internal tool with GHC 6.4 and the next Hugs release (especially for use with the hugs-package tool) should be possible, I see what I can do...
Does that implement traditional in addition to ansi semantics? The choice whether haskell sources needing cpp should expect traditional (as current) or an ansi preprocessor is sometimes important as many things are done differently in them. For example token pasting and stringification happen in different incompatible ways... - Einar Karttunen
