There are 3 commonly-used solutions to this problem:
1. Check in generated files and use AM_MAINTAINER_MODE
2. Don't check in generated files; all users must have correct
versions of tools. Use autoreconf and/or custom script to set
things up
3. Check in generated files and have a script to touch things up
afterwards. gcc uses this solution. (I think this is the worst of
the bunch.)
