Dear Maintainer,

The free42-nologo rightly compiles against the packaged intelrdfpmath library
instead of the vendored one.

However, I have noticed that the free42-nologo source package still embeds two
headers from that library, namely bid_conf.h and bid_functions.h. I have the
impression that the build uses these two headers. Also note that they have
diverged from the same headers shipped by the packaged library.

At this time this is probably not causing any actual problem, even though I did
not check carefully. But such a mismatch between headers and binary library
nevertheless strikes me as a possible source of bugs, especially in the future.

Removing the two headers from the repackaged source tarball of free42-nologo
looks like the safest solution.

Thanks for your work,
