Short answer: no

the script is not interated into the make process yet, but even
if it were:
the tools needed to generate the files are not available on every
system (spell: Windows), so we should keep the generated files in
CVS just as we do with ext/standard/url_scanner_ex.c for those of
us that do not have the 're' tool installed.

i thought about generating the files during buildconf or configure as
they shouldn't change to often, but have finally decided to use
configure
to fill a make rule that will work like

credits_ext.h: $top_srcdir/ext/*/CREDITS
        $top_srcdir/scripts/credits $top_srcdir/ext

credits_sapi.h: $top_srcdir/sapi/*/CREDITS
        $top_srcdir/scripts/credits $top_srcdir/sapi

as make does not support wildcards in dependencies (or does it?) i will
have to use a little configure magic to fill in the actual lists of
credits files
as i'll get the new book on autoconf tomorrow this will have to wait
another day
