Hi Mike,

You do have to help me a little to explain why all these are needed.

OK, I haven't seen this generated, but I guess it would be in the
top-level if it would.

Isn't this a libtool file? We don't use libtool.

What generates these?

OK, I see the same being generated.

OK, I was wondering why these weren't there yet included.
