These files are shell and perl scripts used for configuring/building R.
They are not required at run time, and hence not installed.

The files are as follows.

  config.guess
  config.sub
  install-sh
  mdate-sh
  missing
  mkinstalldirs
	standard tools from GNU autoconf.  Taken from the autoconf CVS
	(pserver:anoncvs@subversions.gnu.org:/cvsroot/autoconf, module 
	`autoconf').

  GETCONFIG
	create API `Rconfig.h' from the configure information in
	`config.h'.
  GETMAKEVAL
	get the value of a Make variable from a Makefile [this needs to
	be improved].
  GETSYMBOLS
	create `FFDecl.h' and `FFTab.h' from `src/appl/ROUTINES'.
