On 3aug2025 preprocessor and simplecpp got updated, and after this update
cppcheck is failing to analyze real projects.

In cppcheck/test I added color.h, and that was enough to trigger the
problem.

color.h includes fixture.h and fixture.h includes color.h again.
This is perfectly ok in regular c-code. And the preprocessor of the
c-compiler we give a helping hand to protect itself with the

ifndef/#define or #pragma once. And before the update, cppcheck also did

not have issues with circular includes.

ifndef colorH

define colorH

include "fixture.h"

include "precompiled.h"

endif //colorH

I have no idea where to start to solve this issue. So I hope there is
someone smarter then me that knows how to fix the issue.

I can say that when I take the last version, and replace simplecpp and
preprocessor files with the version of 2aug2025, the issue is gone.
