I really want to see all *build* artifacts removed from Mesa's *source* control. I recall the pain of having the bison and flex output managed by git, and I don't like continuing that fallacy. > 1.

There's no way to automatically handle that. I don't understand how 2 affects this discussion. Is it that the xserver build relies on these generated headers? If so, then we can move the generated headers to the xserver repo and merrily remove these build artifacts from Mesa's source control. Afterwards, it would be the xserver's devs responsibility to manually update their headers, or fix their makefiles to gen them at build time. > 3.
