That's a relatively low number, indeed. :)

Imake is obsolete, X.org migrated to autoconf+gmake a long time ago, and
new software should avoid it.  That said, for old software, you could
just add a dependency on one of the gcc ports, or maybe use another C
preprocessor that supports -traditional mode.  I understood ucpp might
be able to do the job.
