I'm +1 on the sidefile approach. +0 on the various buffer approaches.

I concur with Antoine except that I'm a full -1 on commingling
generated code with hand edited code. Sprinked everywhere
interferes with my ability to grok the code. It interferes with
code navigation. And it creates a greater risk of accidentally
editing the generated code.

FWIW, I think everyone should place a lot of weight on
Serhiy's comments and suggestions. His reasoning is
clear and compelling. And the thoughts are all soundly
based on extensive experience with the clinic's effect on
the C source code.
