why installing *.exp files on platforms where they aren't needed?

I get these 3 files installed together with other httpd-2/apr files on linux:

~/httpd/prefork/modules/httpd.exp
~/httpd/prefork/lib/apr.exp
~/httpd/prefork/lib/aprutil.exp

Won't it make sense to not install them on OSes where they have no use? Or are 
there compilers on linux that need the *.exp files?

These are needed only on AIX.
