Hi!
This might make imake build using clang and ucpp, but have you tried any
ports that utilize imake?  My experience is that having ucpp as CPP (or
RAWCPP) makes the configure script happy, but that it is still not
compatible enough with gnu cpp to make things (libX11, xorg-server) happy.
Regards!
