I added this directory to hold some files that could be used as samples 
of file-based configuration.  You can use to follow an example provided 
in Configure.pl's documentation.  And there are some configuration step 
tests that use them to test file-based configuration.

If you would like to move them elsewhere, can you open a TT for that 
purpose?  You can include the following 'grep' output:

$ fns . | xargs grep -n xconf
./Configure.pl:655:    perl Configure.pl --file=xconf/samples/yourfoobar
./Configure.pl:659:    perl Configure.pl --file=xconf/samples/testfoobar
./lib/Parrot/Test/Pod.pm:48:                        | 
xconf/samples/yourfoobar
./lib/Parrot/Test/Pod.pm:54:                        | 
xconf/samples/testfoobar
./MANIFEST:2168:xconf/samples/testfoobar 
     []
./MANIFEST:2169:xconf/samples/yourfoobar 
     []
./MANIFEST.orig:2167:xconf/samples/testfoobar 
          []
./MANIFEST.orig:2168:xconf/samples/yourfoobar 
          []
./t/configure/008-file_based_configuration.t:20:    my $configfile = 
q{xconf/samples/testfoobar};
./t/configure/008-file_based_configuration.t:43:    my $configfile = 
q{xconf/samples/yourfoobar};


Thank you very much.
