No. But they all illustrate a bad habit to generate files under CVS tree. 
While *.pyf,*.cpp files are platform/compiler independent then other files 
are not. These other files must be removed whenever you switch a compiler 
or a platform but using the same CVS tree. Actually, also *.pyf files 
depend on the ATLAS version and may cause problems when switching ATLAS 
libraries.
`?` indicates that those files are unknown to the CVS repository and this 
is a good thing.
