This "shortcut" in pmc2c.pl is buggy:

        # XXX write default.dump only once
        my $existing = find_file($include, $file);
        next if $existing && -e $existing && dump_is_newer($existing);

The dump file contains contents that can change if any of the PMC's parent
classes change. Hence it's a bug to attempt to shortcut writing it based
solely on the relative timestamp of ONLY this .pmc file.

This is likely to be the cause of subtle bugs. 
It should go.
