Comment:

 When CPP is enabled, we just run `cpp` on the source code. `cpp` doesn't
 know anything about Haskell, so it can't ignore quasi-quoted content.

 One option is to provide a way to escape '#'s in your quasi-quoter, so
 e.g. hamlet would parse
 {{{
 [hamlet|
 \#{foo}
 |]
 }}}
 as if it were `#{foo}`.
