I am sure this file made lots of sense bach when we had tex-common,
tetex and texlive, all with separate update cycles.  Now with only
texlive having a separate upstream, we could maybe get rid of it, and
simply manually change in tex-common what the new TeX Live upstream
version requires. 

But I'm not sure.
