Maybe we could set things up so that there are actual files which are
programatically preprocessed to SGML to be included in the docs?  That
way, the docs always reflect the actual file, which by itself is
compilable.  The SGML source would only contain something like
<include file="examples/foo.c" /> or something like that.

Is that feasible?
