[VM][SF] Cross has too much in the CVS tree?

The Cross directory has a bunch of files in it that are automatically
generated.  But it doens't contain a full set.  Thus, when you generate
your VM, you get some files that you generated, and some files that are
copied over from Cross.

Isn't this a little strange?  For example, because of this, you must
have LargeFiles loaded into the image you generate a VM from.  It seems
like either Cross should have an entire VM generated, or nothing.  I'd
vote for removing all files from Cross that are automatically generated.
 If you are using VMMaker, it seems like you would like to actually
*make* your own VM.
