This is unexpected fallout from the transition from gcc to clang.
calendar invokes cpp, and it seems that clang's cpp doesn't like what
it sees.  This patch works around the issue:

--- pathnames.h (revision 242777)
+++ pathnames.h (working copy)
@@ -32,5 +32,5 @@

  #include <paths.h>

-#define        _PATH_CPP       "/usr/bin/cpp"
+#define        _PATH_CPP       "/usr/bin/gcpp"
  #define       _PATH_INCLUDE   "/usr/share/calendar"

Clearly that's not the solution.  I'll investigate.

Looks like yet another cpp -traditional abuse.  Clang will most likely
never support traditional preprocessing.

It is probably better to just use sed or awk for this kind of trickery.
