Yes, it was already pointed out. But, as I said, this is done for *every*
exported directory. My patch just follows how it is done currently:
$ find . -name '.install' | wc -l
105
$ find . -name '..install.cmd' | wc -l
105
$ find . -type d | wc -l
105

I'm not against removing these files, but this should be done in another patch,
it's not related to this series.
Fell free to send a patch.
