There's a patch up in bug 1274518 for preprocessing IPDL files, which will presumably require SearchFox to be updated. It looks like the preprocessing happens during the build step, so hopefully SearchFox can simply grab the preprocessed output.

This eventually landed, and is being used for PMediaTransport.ipdl. Ideally, I could just pass in the path for the preprocessed version of the file from the objdir instead of the other one. I'll have to figure out how to do that. Hopefully the preprocessing just dumps everything in a single directory in the objdir, and then I could just look there and refer to that version of any IPDL file instead of the other one. On the other hand, this may mess up line numbers...
