True, although you could still cherry-pick individual fixes ("git fetch 
skywing && git cherry-pick <commit>").  All the troublesome files were 
added in one commit, and left alone afterward.

At the time, I avoided autodist simply because I did not have it and was 
eager to get a working silc client build so that I could test some 
changes.  Adding the required files seemed like the quickest solution. 
For anyone else considering this: it wasn't particularly quick.  Stay 
with the recommended build system.

I will look into switching to using autodist, and then rebuild the tree 
without the generated files.
