Complete macro expansion with cpp

Hallo!
I need to get all macro #definitions output to stdout or some file.
The problem is:
When I pre-process the following lines


#define MACRO1 (1)
#define MACRO2 (MACRO1)


using cpp with the option '-dM' it outputs the same lines:


#define MACRO1 (1)
#define MACRO2 (MACRO1)


But I need an output with the macros expanded completely. Something
like this:


#define MACRO1 (1)
#define MACRO2 ((1))


Any idea how to get this done?


Thanks in advance
Peter
[If there's no existing tool, I'd think it'd be pretty easy to write a
grosse hacque in perl or python that runs cpp -dM, then took that
output and made a list of all the macros, ran that list through cpp to
get the expansions, then spliced the expansions back into #defines
