Hi Dimitris,

I've moved this discussion to the devel list since perhaps it'd be best
to just ask:

  Would anyone have a problem if I removed the empty and probably 
  useless "aux" dir located at "verification/flt_example/aux" ?

If no one has a problem with that, I'll move it (*not* delete it)
outside of CVS by the end of the week.
