You are missing two Perl scripts, but only because I missed them first.
See #72.

You could get the files from either Trac or Subversion.

Running configure for the test suite isn't necessary, but I only just
realised that it wasn't documented anywhere.  I added #71 about it.

configure is currently only useful for bundling up distributions.

testing/testsuite.xml or testsuite/testsuite.xml?

testsuccess.xml is generated along the way.  Added #73 about it.

h2xsl.pl is missing.

h2pl.pl is also missing.

The only problem with that is that the script should be updated to miss
'config' (or 'config' be removed again).

Thanks, though there's plenty of holes and rough edges remaining.
You've already found a few of them.
