Things get declared as obsolete when they are removed from the build,
the examples you give were part of the build at one point, postinstall
won't remove things that it doesn't recognize.

If you have local changes to your source tree then the files under
src/distrib/sets/lists need to match that.

If the two files that are being removed are from outside your NetBSD
source tree then it might be worth renaming them so that they don't
match actual obsolete files.
