cpphs has no pre-defined macros, and no predefined include paths.
If you want it to pretend to be ghc -cpp, you need to add arguments like
    -D__GLASGOW_HASKELL__=604  -I/usr/local/lib/ghc-6.4.1/includes
explicitly.  (More generally, you might want to record such arguments
in a little wrapper script that calls cpphs.)
