I thought these were in the upstream texmf-tree as an empty
directories and so it would be necessary to deliver these
as a prototype for a user who tried to install some stuffs
from CTAN(?) for example.
In fact I'm not sure for what stuffs are these so if we all
think it is unnecessary there is no probelem to remove these.
I've explained this in README.Debian;
- We should preserve empty directories by creating a file .need_me in those
directories for orig.tar.gz because cvs-upgrade dislikes empty directory.
Try to run "find . -type d -empty -print" and then
"find . -type d -empty -exec touch {}/.need_me \;" and finally check again
with "find . -type d -empty -print"

Well, soft links would cause problems with CVS so we should
remove any soft links but I believe they sould be recovered
with rules. In README.Debian you would find;
- We should remove symlinks from orig.tar.gz because cvs-upgrade disliked
symlinks so run "restore-symlinks -rm" in original source tree.
After that please check if there remains no symlink any more with
"find . -type l -print". At present, pdftex.map and psfonts.map are
treated in a special way.
