Hmm, let's see. These are headers installed with (and for) the
gcc compiler, right ? Each compiler has its own predefined macros,
include paths, etc., so you may need to tell synopsis.
The way to do this is by giving synopsis the name of the compiler
to emulate. Synopsis will then invoke that compiler to try to find
out these values, so it can use them when it invokes its built-in
preprocessor.[*]

synopsis -h -p Cxx will tell you all the options you can use with the Cxx
parser. There's notably the 'emulate_compiler' option, which defaults to
'c++'. Can you try 'g++' to see whether that works better ? 'c++' should
be just an alias to 'g++', but...

synopsis -p Cxx -Wp,--emulate_compiler='g++' ...

Hmm, I have to work on the documentation then...

[*] synopsis will generate a file $(HOME)/.synopsis/cpp_emulations
     including settings for a set of compilers it has found on your
     system, so it doesn't need to run them all the time...
