that is a serious flaw in indent-2.2.9.  A new option should be added for
this: if the whole file is one big #ifndef..#endif, this outermost #ifdef
would be ignored.  It should be on by default.

Moreover, two of the three options you mentioned are not properly
documented:
        --preprocessor-indentationN    -ppiN
        --remove-preprocessor-space    -nlps

They are missing from `Option Summary', both from the list of
descriptions and from the `Cross Key' table below.

I'm not sure whether indent is actively developped, but at least this bug
report is filed in bug-indent archives now.

Have a nice day,
        Stepan
