XSLT is not particularly suited for generating C++ sources.

It might be nice to port kconfig_compiler to use the code generation helper 
classes from kode (which currently is in kdepim for historical reasons) at 
some point in time. This would get rid of much of the spaghetti code.

Otherwise, I currently don't see a real reason to change kconfig_compiler to 
use something different as it seems to work ok for now.
