While I agree that files automatically generated shouldn't be checked in to a VCS, I'm in favor of putting key binary files under VCS if they are required to do the build. We often check deveopment toolchains into Subversion. Subversion handles it just fine, and it saves having to come up with an entirely different scheme for archiving toolchain binaries. [If we build the toolchains ourselves, we will archive those sources as well.] -- Grant -- https://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
