Hi,

sorry for my long silence, I've been quite busy with my real life. IIRC, we 
decided some months ago to not include automatically generated files (like 
Makefile.in, configure, even .pot).

I cannot remember our reason back then, and I think that it would be a good 
idea to put those files under version control. We've done that already with 
the .pot files, and I cannot think of a reason why this should not work 
with Makefiles and configure.

So from my point of view, please add those files to SVN.

Regards,
Tobias
