No. base64-tests.el was deleted from the CVS repository because it had an embedded NULL in it that caused every cvs rdiff to puke and die. Not that removing it helped any because the build scripts still failed to create a patch file. :-( It should get put back before the next beta.

They are really in the Attic. I do not know why.
