Now you're talking about something I understand.  I added that directory 
to the source distribution in r41040.  This did, however, require 
renaming the directory to get rid of the space.

The resulting source tarball has the files in it, though I couldn't tell 
you if that helps building on Mac's or not.

I also scheduled that fix to be back-ported to 1.6.6.  If you can try it 
out with an buildbot source tarball before then, that would be good.
