There are several options then

1. Include the examples in the tarball but don't install them from RPM or 'make 
install'
2. Same as #1 except 'make install' would install them as disabled
3. Same as #1 except both RPM and 'make install' would install them as disabled

I am OK with just #1, since there are other real modules that can be used as 
examples as well and if they want to use the example C or python modules as a 
template for development, the source is still in the tarball.
