You make it sound so simple!
I think I would find it easier to write a pre-processor than try and
source, build and interface to someone else's.
But if the OP is using gcc, they can get preprocessed output out of it
using gcc -E, and play around with that.
That wouldn't be a satisfactory solution for me as it would need to be
self-contained, and more efficient. If I run gcc -E on this 2-line program:
#include <windows.h>
int main(void) {MessageBox(0,"There","Hi",0);}
I get 82,000 lines of preprocessed output.
