We intentionally don't include these source files. They are not
small---UnicodeData.txt is 1.1MB---and they have no further use in
Emacs, so it doesn't make sense to include it in the Emacs distribution.
You only need to generate these files once, and that's it.
We can package them separately if that is more convenient, but we are
ethically bound to make them available somehow.
Do we?
