There are only a few of files in libdecnumber and gnulib, so I didn't
think it was justified to remove them. They do present a real
problem.
As for .cvsignore, they shouldn't present a problem because they are
not in the tarball. If you are running the script on the CVS sandbox,
then I guess we need to ignore them. I will see what I can do.

I don't think so. Any conflicts cause trouble when unpacking the
tarball on 8+3 and some older Windows systems.

I agree that too much noise is bad, but do we really have a lot of
noise? How many positives are you willing to have before they are
noise?

Nothing. We don't care about this part of doschk's output. I thought
I made that section disappear, but it sounds like I goofed.
