Quite. Nothing generated belongs in CVS; that's for human-edited source only as otherwise its usefulness for investigation and understanding changes diminshes due to the noise. CVS users have to expect to need more than a shipped tar-ball requires. tar-balls can be archived separately to record what was shipped to users over time, including the configure produced by the developer's system at that instant. Cheers, Ralph.
