you're welcome. Thanks for the prompt review!

yep, you're right, i'll make that change shortly.

Despite the filenames, these documents describe nuances in how to hook
tcpcrypt into the OS's networking stack, and i think they're useful for
people who might be interested in running tcpcryptd with their own
configurations, or on other machines. So i think they are useful and
not particularly distracting (e.g. if i don't care about Mac OS X, i'm
not going to bother reading INSTALL-MacOSX.markdown).
Even if that wasn't the case, there are many other debian packages that
ship compilation and installation documentation despite the package
already being compiled and installed, as it provides the casual user a
bit of information about how a package might be built from source, if
they are considering modifying it but haven't fetched the source package
yet.
So i am not going to remove these files from the package. does that
make sense?
