According to the Automake manual, generated .c files do not need
to appear in BUILT_SOURCES:
`BUILT_SOURCES' is actually a bit of a misnomer, as any
file which must be created early in the build process can be
listed in this variable. Moreover, all built sources do not
necessarily have to be listed in `BUILT_SOURCES'. For
instance, a generated `.c' file doesn't need to appear in
`BUILT_SOURCES' (unless it is included by another source),
because it's a known dependency of the associated object.
