My reasoning behind an early addition is that it makes
later bulk merge patches easier to make since you don't
have to find the set of files to add each time which
will either be time consuming trial and error, human reasoning or
you have to spend a time to write a semi automated tool.

Once everything is in place, we'll then be able to safely
cvs delete GNAT 3 files, they were part of the GNU project
at some point anyway, and someone with GNAT 3.15p sources
will be able to find in the FSF CVS that the file was
purposely obsoleted.

Before sending my original email I did a random
sampling of a dozen files and they were all needed
(from Makefile or with closure) but for gnathtml.pl,
with some statistical confidence there must
not be that many files that we'll need to
delete later on.

Assuming my bootstrap succeeds, ok to add the files?
