The presence or absence of those files of course doesn't affect the  
'boinc-client' binary package; but debian also distributes a  
corresponding 'boinc' source code package (like they do for all  
software in the main and contrib sections).

They already remove non-free CUDA .dll/.so files from the svn checkout  
before creating the source package; they'd have to do the same with  
texfont.
