SageTeX includes PDFs of the documentation because we don't want to
assume a working TeX distribution is present. (Although if you don't have
such a thing, you likely won't be using SageTeX...) There's also the
typeset version of the example file, which is nice so users can compare
the source and the output. The PDFs add about 400 KB to the source
tarball which is reasonable, considering we also ship a compiler!

I do notice that the share/doc/sagetex directory doesn't have the
example.tex file, which it should. I'll try to fix that and change the
documentation.
