Correct.  The change is due to philosophical changes by the GCC
development team.  GCC 2.95.2's cpp built from cccp.c is now a pure
preprocessor and knows much less about the world than it previously did.
In 2.95.2 there is now an additional cpp that is build using gcc.c and is
a driver for the cccp.c cpp.
