[ blink... ] Methinks you are looking at a rather broken mirror of the
CVS repository. None of those files have been removed from branch
REL8_3_STABLE, as evidenced both by direct checking of the core
repository and by the fact that the buildfarm isn't all red. Removing
configure would surely break every last build.

Just out of curiosity, which SCM-that-wants-to-supplant-CVS was this?
