From CVS, it's a Good Thing. I'm not sure about tar.gz's.

Is this msgfmt.py distributed in the tarball? If yes, I guess it's ok.
If no, I'd leave them in. If they are removed, they should probably be
built by the normal "make all" rule without needing external tools
(automake-made tarballs are like this).
