Yeah.  I desisted from deleting it after I noticed that there are
provisions for re-generating it over in the doc/src/sgml Makefile.
However, I'm now wondering why it's not handled exactly like INSTALL
--- ie, don't keep it in CVS, but auto-generate it during tarball build.
The current manual procedure definitely isn't keeping it up to date.
