Autogenerated files should have a big prominent warning telling people not to edit them.

First and foremost tests.xml/xsl, but anything that's generated from maplints Makefile should be marked with a warning.

If nobody else patches this I'll probably have a look at it later.

I believe this bug has been fixed while you were adding the ticket, reopen if you think the fix is not complete.

Yes, tests.xml is now marked, however there are loads of generated files, for example tests.xsl and the entire contents of the html dir.
