I've been playing around with libcpp (the c preprocessor) from gcc and 
was wondering if that was indeed enough to make a tool like htod.

I mean, do you need to parse the C code further, or is a preprocessor 
(passing you the tokens) enough to do what htod does?

(You'd have to detect the 3 tokens "unsigned long long" yourself and 
replace it with "ulong", but that's find&replace, hardly parsing)
