Could you remind me which package (or svn revision) you are refering to?

I'll turn that around. What are they needed for?  You should only  
need a setup.py
and, if buildout is used, a buildout.cfg.

The examples alex showed me seemed out of date with the current way  
of doing things.

I particularly don't want setup.cfg.in, and MANIFEST.in as these  
aren't really necessary and tend to cause problems.
