You can have all that with m4. It's a perfectly suitable C preprocessor.

m4 is a bit weird but if you can use that you can use any preprocessor - including a custom one.
The issue is that chances are said preprocessor wont work with editors and IDEs that can parse C to provide tools like syntax completion, jumping to definitions, etc - if anything you'd be lucky if you get working line numbers t use a debugger with.
