Is there any reason why "imake" doesn't just use the DECUS "cpp", which is supplied in source form with X11R4? This would eliminate its dependency on a piece of software that: 1) is generally not supplied in source form by vendors; 2) often has been tweaked to improve its ability to preprocess C - that being, after all, its role in life - in ways that interfere with its use by "imake"; 3) may not even *exist* on some systems.

Is there any reason why "imake" doesn't just use the DECUS "cpp", which is supplied in source form with X11R4? Lack of time. I definitely had wanted to do it, but just never found the time to bang the bits.
