Comment (by simonmar):
I don't think it's possible to "build stage 1 without CPP support", the
problem is more likely to be that the `-XCPP` option just got lost
somewhere.
My guess is that this has something to do with the `$$(shell ...)`
commands in `rules/distdir-way-opts.mk`. You could try replacing, e.g.
{{{
$1_$2_$3_HSC2HS_CC_OPTS:=$$(shell for i in $$($1_$2_DIST_CC_OPTS); do echo
\'--cflag=$$$$i\'; done)
}}}
with
{{{
$1_$2_$3_HSC2HS_CC_OPTS:=$$($1_$2_DIST_CC_OPTS)
}}}
and see if that helps (similarly for the other occurrences of `$$(shell
...)` in that file). If that is indeed the problem, then we need to find
another fix. I'm guessing that Solaris `/bin/sh` has different quoting
semantics from Bash.
