Re: [setup] Extra files under source control

It makes sense to not have them in CVS from a consistency standpoint. However, those dirs are intended to be vendor branches (or whatever CVS
calls it when you just bulk add external files) so that hopefully
keeping a current version just means importing an upstream release
tarball. I don't know how CVS copes with that, I'd have to read up in
the CVS book. Dave, do you know?

Brian, as Dave never answered, does this constitute an objection, or can I go ahead and remove the listed files?
