I've looked more closely at this issue and it turns out that the
utilities you name are specifically listed in the SWORD build code as
being programs which ought to be compiled but which ought not to be
installed. Therefore I am not installing them when I build the SWORD
package Xiphos builds against and they are not being packaged up at
all.

I'm not sure why these in particular in in the utilities/ directory,
are built, but are disabled for install. I crafted the CMake build
system very closely on the autotools system where they were already
listed as noinst_PROGRAMS and where they remain.

If someone else would like to answer why these are not distributed as
SWORD binaries then we can have an answer to this riddle.
