tools/dev/ has a number of unused and possibly broken scripts. of
them, there seem to be a number related to manifest generation:
gen_manifest_skip.pl
mk_manifest_and_skip.pl
mk_manifests.pl
your mission: determine if one script can replace the work of three.

Just as a note, this ticket is related to #40911
It's ok with me. IIRC I tried to remove them about a year ago, but
managed to break Parrot and never managed to get around to finding the
right way to remove them.

Parrot::Distribution::gen_manifest_skip() and subsequently
t/distro/manifest_skip.t have been broken for some time.
Does anybody mind if I remove them?

No one has spoken up in their defense in the 3+ months since the ticket was opened. So I
would recommend deletion.
