It's not included because it's an auto-generated file. Info and
`.gmo' files are not in the CVS for similar reasons.
As you've gathered by now, running `make -f Makefile.cvs' (or simply
`autoconf') will generate configure. This however means that you need
to have `autoconf' installed, but CVS sources are expected to be used
by developers who have such stuff. And Autoconf comes with most Linux
distributions anyway so it's not such a big deal.
