I usually don't bother with them.

I hate being redundant.  Unless you have something that intellegently
generates a README and INSTALL docs on the fly from the module's docs
and setup, I'll usually forget/not bother to update the README/INSTALL
files from the new code.  They'll just fall out of date.  And if
there's one thing I hate, it's unnecessary redundancy.

Here's a prototype I started many moons ago if you'd like to take
a shot at completing it.
