Test 1119 and 1167 both invoke separate perl scripts that scan code for
symbols etc. (see tests/data/test1119 and tests/data/test1167)

Those perl scripts get the $Cpreprocessor variable from the configurehelp.pm
module, which is generate by configure (via the CURL_GENERATE_CONFIGUREHELP_PM
function) and using that they are supposed to be able to invoke cpp and scan
proprocessed source code.

I imagine there's some trouble in that setup.

Test 1451 has a <precheck> that is supposed to do something like that but it
doesn't seem to do it correctly?
