OK, I see now that I was supposed to twig that the reference was to putting the ?.Rnw'
files back into the vignettes directory from the inst/doc directory where they?d been
placed in the course of creating the tar.gz file. I am still trying to work out what I need
to put into ?.Rinstignore? so that ?.install_extras? is not installed.

To install any other files from the vignettes directory, include a file vignettes/.install_extras which specifies these as Perl-like regular expressions on one or more lines. (See the description of the .Rinstignore file for full details.)'
