Thanks for the clarification, Duncan. Seems an easy partial solution would be a single pass (before CPP) that notices just the #include directives. Consult the package database to find those packages. That route would find direct includes but not indirect ones. An optional and still-easy next step would be to look inside those includes for further #include directives. I'm unsure whether the cabal solution is as powerful as the single-level include method or the recursive one.
