svn nmap.nsi observation

Greetings. I've been fiddling with the nsis script for nmap with a view to making a few improvements and I've noticed something that isn't a bug and doesn't have an impact on the windows installer in any way, but is just a bit odd. The mswin32/makefile creates a mswin32/nmap-$(VERSION) directory and copies all nmap and zenmap files/folders into it, including the nsis components. By the time makensis.exe is executed with the mswin32/nmap-$(VERSION)/nmap.nsi script, everything it requires (with one exception: icon1.ico) is already in the directory nmap-$(VERSION) with it. The script however, pulls in the files/folders required for the installer from everywhere other than this directory: File ..\..\CHANGELOG File ..\..\COPYING File ..\..\nmap-mac-prefixes File ..\..\nmap-os-db File ..\..\nmap-protocols File ..\..\nmap-rpc File ..\..\nmap-service-probes File ..\..\nmap-services File ..\Release\nmap.exe File ..\..\docs\nmap.xsl File ..\nmap_performance.reg File ..\..\README-WIN32 File /r /x mswin32 /x .svn ..\..\scripts File /r /x mswin32 /x .svn ..\Release\nselib File /r /x mswin32 /x .svn ..\Release\nselib-bin File ..\icon1.ico when it could be: File CHANGELOG File COPYING File nmap-mac-prefixes File nmap-os-db File nmap-protocols File nmap-rpc File nmap-service-probes File nmap-services File nmap.exe File nmap.xsl File nmap_performance.reg File README-WIN32 File /r /x mswin32 /x .svn scripts File /r /x mswin32 /x .svn nselib File /r /x mswin32 /x .svn nselib-bin File ..\icon1.ico and there's a few more entries like that too. Is there a reason for it?
