>From [1] I gather that its license really is LGPL/GPL. However, when used as a preprocessor its license doesn't really matter. Many packages on that list have a LGPL "taint" because one of its deps use cpphs. So the whitelist of cpphs would be stating that nobody is using cpphs as a library (which may be false, but is mostly true ;).
