4-STABLE as of August 18th.

>Description:

/usr/libexec/cpp doesn't support the -undef flag, although --help
documents it. (As does the cpp(1) manpage, although it's unclear
if cpp(1) is meant to apply to /usr/libexec/cpp as well as the
one in /usr/bin.)

lcc (/usr/ports/lang/lcc) invokes /usr/libexec/cpp with -undef, and
thus breaks when /usr/libexec/cpp barfs about the unrecognized option.

>How-To-Repeat:

Install lcc from ports, then try to compile something.

>Fix:

Re-enable -undef for the cpp in /usr/libexec.
