Hello,
sorry if I'm totally wrong - I have no experience in this area, but if
someone is strongly against removing those files for any reason (not
that I would) then we might consider passing -i flag while generating C
files with re2c.
As far as I can see most of the changes listed on every diff touching
this file are different line numbers in comments. This option should
disable them if only re2c documentation[1] is right.
Regards,
Maciej.

I'd like to bring this up again. It seems the thread got side-tracked with
unrelated discussion (about vm_execute.h) and I didn't get any answers to
the original question.
Case in point: The current zend_language_scanner.c has been generated by
Andrea, who uses a different re2c version from everybody else (0.13.6
instead of 0.13.5). This means that if I do some tiny change to
zend_language_scanner.l I immediately get a 3000 line diff. So we just end
up changing this file back and forth depending on the algorithm used by
different versions.
