gEDA-dev: removal of generated files from pcb cvs

Hello,

Unless someone can really convince me otherwise I'd like to remove all 
the generated Makefile.in's, configure, aclocal.m4, config.h.in and 
other files from pcb's cvs.  These are all generated by automake and 
friends.  This will not affect anyone building from tarball's (i.e. the 
snapshots) but it would mean that anyone building from cvs sources would 
need automake and autoconf installed.  My feeling is those aren't to 
much to ask of someone who is tracking cvs sources already and without 
that there are lots of spurious diffs for developers when slightly 
different automake versions are used.

Comments?

Thanks
-Dan
