These files are indeed obsolete, as indicated by their flags in
conf/postfix-files.  You will notice that postfix-script, postfix-files
and post-install are still placed in the $daemon_directory; their
redundant placement in $config_directory is obsolete.  Similarly,
the other files noted above were replicas of man pages which are still 
installed.
