I recently upgraded to this version of Emacs:

GNU Emacs 22.0.50.1 (i386-mingw-nt5.0.2195) of 2006-03-21 on YAMALOK [1]

It didn't come with gnuserv.el.  When I tried to use the gnuserv.el that
worked with Emacs 21.3, I got an error.  Eventually I downloaded the
gnuserv beta [2] and copied the *.el files over to the Emacs lisp
directory.  I kept the gnu*.exe files that came with Emacs in the bin
directory.  Now it works.

So why aren't the necessary el files included with Emacs?
