It's not going to invent them.  It's going to re-extract them from the
pkg.tar.gz file that you have cached on your hard drive.

Try issuing this command:

tar -tvzf /var/cache/pacman/pkg/pacman-2.9.5-1.pkg.tar.gz

Note that the following files are included in the output:

-rw-r--r-- root/root       973 2005-01-11 18:01:28 etc/pacman.d/current
-rw-r--r-- root/root      1180 2005-01-11 18:01:28 etc/pacman.d/release
-rw-r--r-- root/root       930 2005-01-11 18:01:28 etc/pacman.d/extra
-rw-r--r-- root/root      1049 2005-01-11 18:01:28 etc/pacman.d/unstable

So doing a re-install will copy these files from out of this archive and
re-install them onto your system.
