Given the issues you are mentioning, and given they were never reported in years before, it seems unlikely anybody is using these files.

+1 to remove them, as they don't seem documented either.

-1. If they were broken, and somebody used them, a bug would be reported. That no bug is being reported means that they either work fine, or nobody uses them.

In the former case, removing them will break somebody's code. In the latter case, nothing is gained by either keeping or removing them.

So why remove them?

Regards, Martin
