You mean ISO not ANSI.  In any case the ISO standard says nothing about 
the compiler being divided into a cpp and a compiler proper, nor does 
it say anything about exactly how the compiler is invoked.  Things like 
that are left up to the compiler implementor to decide and well outside 
the scope of the ISO standard.

The POSIX or UNIX standards might have something to say about the 
command line compiler invocation (but I can't be bothered to check 
right now).
