These should be kept in CVS. zlib, like the setup root, is kept
ready-to-go.


You are correct. CVS won't actually ignore configure, even if it *is* in
.cvsignore, because it is under version control.

autom4te.cache isn't though, so I would like to add that (but not
configure).

The autom4te.cache should _never_ go to CVS. It contains data about the autoconf users system and could cause false positives and false negatives for a different maintainer.

Earnie.
