This definitely sounds like a bug. Those files are checked in here, if you compare them to others you might be able to figure out how

Those haven't been updated in years, 9 years for the 5.1 one. Are they hand crafted, or programmatically generated somehow?

If they are not created and kept up to date programmatically they should not exist IMO, as they will not likely be correct / complete.

They are generated by running this script. Results depend a bit on what one has installed, in the past I've tried to use a fresh new default system that mirrors what most people have installed (e.g. some module have to be enabled via Windows features)
