As I understand the code, these files are not strictly necessary to run the <fx:deploy> Ant task. By adding the includeDT="false" attribute to the task the script will be loaded from http://java.com/js/dtjava.js instead of being embedded. With includeDT="true" the task will break with an exception.
We can try adding back the script for now, but I'm a bit concerned that it will slowly diverge from the one distributed by Oracle and may break at some point in the future by lack of active maintenance. I compared the last GPL version of dtjava.js in the commit you pointed out with the version from Java 8u25 and they are already different. The version from Java 8u25 has IE 11 support for example, and there are more changes in Java 8u40. I'll try contacting the JavaFX developers and see if they are willing to open source the script.
