I'll note in passing that the python release pulls in the (AMQP) spec file
without needing it to be copied in svn.

It does that by producing a sparse qpid/ archive:

     tar -czf artifacts/qpid-python-${VER}.tar.gz qpid-${VER}/python
qpid-${VER}/specs

As a result, the LICENSE and README files are not in the archive root.
  I think this is bad in general, and the qpid cpp artifact in
particular has always had those files at the root.

That's a good point, and I agree that we want to keep things that way.

In order to solve this problem and avoid copying the specs, we'd need
to add a dist generation step, as we previously had with autotools.

Providing the management spec is moved, not copied, I could live with copying the other two files.

No one should really be modifying the AMQP related files and if they did its actually probably preferable that it doesn't affect all components unless they explicitly chose to replicate the change. (That's assuming functional changes of course).
