The only reason ghc does not ship by default with cpphs is ideological -
the latter is GPL licensed. Of course, 3rd-party packagers (RPM,
debian, etc) have the liberty to include cpphs anyway, and modify ghc's
driver script accordingly.
(It does seem curious that, in avoiding the distribution of cpphs, ghc
on Windows instead distributes gcc, which is also GPLed :-)
