Martin: I'll work on another patch over the next few days and post it here for review.  It seems like your comments regarding our options are still valid (despite this thread getting sidetracked): continue with the premise that all generated files get generated in the build directory, and make sure that build directory gets used during the build (i.e. -I./Include).

I'll start with that and see how I get on.
