The original sources for both of these files are maintained by Bruno 
Haible in the gettext package.  The other packages should update their 
packaging scripts to remove these files before making a release tarball.

'course, with fileutils and a few other packages soon-to-be-obsoleted by 
coreutils, that may be a moot point for some of the packages in your 
list, above.
