That paragraph has been there for years; it is not a guarantee that
the referred documents actually contain "general instructions valid
for all components".  What is (almost) certain is that the instructions
embedded in a component's source directory worked for the last
release of that component, and were probably updated during the
preparation of that release.  [Those updates were made necessary
because the "general" instructions (and in the past there were several
sets of them) actually did *not* work for all components.  We cannot
have "general" instructions until we agree and enforce a common
layout for all components.]
