Those have been there for a while - added when automake support was added  
- netsaint-plugins v1.47 Aug 8 2000  ;)

removing them should be fine as the configure process itself shouldn't be 
using them.


BTW - about the docs - there is a doc dir currently with the 
devel-guidelines, it just doesn't get installed anywhere. - should we 
patch side.html to have a pointer to a developer dir under the nagios/html 
install dir?
