FWIW, in sm-c-mode.el (in elpa.git), CPP directives are treated as
comments, and since they do contain code, I have to solve the same kind
of problem.
I (ab)use for that purpose a syntactic face function. The starting
point is:
(setq-local font-lock-syntactic-face-function #'sm-c-syntactic-face-function)
Take a look at sm-c-syntactic-face-function and especially
sm-c--cpp-fontify-syntactically to see how I try to re-use the existing
font-lock functionality.
It's a bit gross, tho.
Stefan
