Patrick,
   Just saw your post.  It just sounds like your code needs to be 
c-preprocessed.  In the case of the epics build system just rename you 
files .st instead of .stt.  That should at least get you closer to the 
functionality you want.  I'm not sure about how you would "include" a 
.st file however.  Are you just trying to prevent assigning variable in 
a separate sequencer?
