Unfortunately, both of you are talking over my head. I don't have all that much experience with make. However, I've worked on a lot of open source projects, and all of them do this common task. They generate files during build time, and modify BUILT_SOURCES...
BUILT_SOURCES is a very ugly approach which requires an extra forced recusion in the build. It is a sort of crutch which is best avoided.
