Scratch that a bit..  Some grepping is pointing out that
generated_sources_ac would become incorrect in
src/include/utils/meson.build.

Three paths in wait_event_names.txt were also inconsistent.  It is
worth noting that the sgml path is entirely wrong, this is generated
in doc/src/sgml/.

Comments and thoughts are welcome.
