Perhaps a good solution would be to have a separate make rule for generating the AST code (i.e. not included in the overall dependancy graph). That increases the chance that they don't get regenerated when they should but people hacking on the AST files should notice the error pretty easily. Other people should always be able to build from the files checked in to SVN and so having the dependancy there is just a source of trouble.
