I see zero practical advantages to a switch to a "distribute everything" approach (which Emacs has never done, and nor when I check do eg tar, texinfo, coreutils); unless it will drastically simplify make-dist and avoid problems like the one fixed in 021f34b. If it does then I am all for it. :)
OK, proposed make-dist patch attached. This patch drastically simplifies the list of files in make-dist that needs to be maintained manually, by relying on Git to keep track of files under version control. This should help avoid problems like the one you mentioned.
