You can think of it this way.
1) Raw Inline C code
2) Inline parses for function definitions
3) Add AUTOINCLUDE headers.
4) Generate XS file with above code and XS in same file.
5) Start build process.
A) xsubpp turns XS into pure C.
B) Normal C compile including preprocessing.
If you were hoping to have preprocessing happen between 1 & 2, check out
Neil Watkiss' Inline::Filters.
