No offence Leigh, you might have a good point and everything, but all
the time you just spent arguing about this "simple tool" you could
have spent actually writing the tool - and maybe sharing it with the
rest of us.

If Google haven't written a preprocessor, the most likely reason is
because they haven't needed it. You don't need Google's core Android
team for this particular problem.
