On larger systems in a previous life I wrote a FSM "compiler" that consumed a description of a state machine and produced a set of tables and source code which was compiled into a communications application. Support libraries included debugging/trace tools that allowed symbolic debugging of a FSM. Has anyone done something like this for embedded C?
