We did a quick 'which cpp', which lead us to '/usr/local/bin/cpp'.
This binary belonged to a rather old version (4.3.x) of the GCC tool
chain, which did not recognize the parameters (esp. -P) correctly. The
follow up question is: Why does the build system end up in
/usr/local/bin though we configured the Genode tool chain correctly?

The reason lies in the mentioned Makefile for the third-party
bootstrap component. I opened a bug report at
