SMG is a tool used to generate state machine framework code from a terse set 
of directives embedded directly in the input source code file. This tool will 
also generate GraphViz graphical description and Spin/Promela modeling 
output.

http://sourceforge.net/projects/smg/

If using C++:
THE BOOST C++ METAPROGRAMMING LIBRARY
http://www.boost.org/libs/mpl/doc/paper/html/example.html
I wish I could get it to make C code.

or

http://sourceforge.net/projects/smc/ 

There is also the language Esterel that is good for solving state machine 
problems, it will produce C code that I've gotten to work on the AVR.

It is easy to write a .DOT file hand have GraphViz draw it for you:
