I get conflicting messages on two points, could you answer these:
  * Should the autogenerated files be checked in or not?
  * Should the files be put in the source directory or in the build directory?

I'd like to do things in a way that fits with current, or better: desired,
GCC practice, but would prevent from switching between different approaches
all the time.
