If c-macro-preprocessor is a recent variable I can't check because 
Emacs does not currently compile on Mac OSX 10.3.  My (a bit old) CVS 
compile does not seem to have it.

But c-macro-expand does not work:

/* Preprocessor terminated with status 127

   Messages from `/lib/cpp -C ':

/bin/bash: line 1: /lib/cpp: No such file or directory


*/

Preprocessor produced no output
