I must this is rather depressing :-( Of course most of those missing 
files are because authors are using "non-standard" file extensions for 
file. This *has* to be fixed, so I'm fixing it. And since this post is 
going to the dev list also, I'm asking lib authors to pay attention to 
this request for info...

Library authors, please indicate which of the following should be 
installed...

** function **
gen_maybe_include.pl
gen_function_N.pl

** pool **
for.m4
pool_construct.bat
pool_construct.m4
pool_construct.sh
pool_construct_simple.bat
pool_construct_simple.m4
pool_construct_simple.sh

** signals **
gen_signal_N.pl

** test **
parsetree.dtd
argv_traverser.cpp
char_parameter.cpp
dual_name_parameter.cpp
id_policy.cpp
named_parameter.cpp
parser.cpp
validation.cpp
environment.cpp
config_file.cpp
config_file_iterator.cpp

** tr1 ** (these obviously should be installed)
algorithm
array
bitset
complex
deque
exception
fstream
functional
iomanip
