I agree that this is kind of nice, but checking generated
files into the CVS repository is really not a good idea in
my experience. It is just a matter of time before someone
overwrites the files by accidently committing the
(re-)generated versions. As a matter of fact, the CVS
history suggests that accidents like this _have_ happened
before. ;-)
