There isn't one: it's part of the makefile.  See the README.cvs file in
the GNU make CVS archive for instructions on how to build a tarball from
the CVS archive.

Note that this can't be done on Windows, only on UNIX.  Well, anyway,
I've never done it on Windows and I've never heard of anyone who has.
The tools required to build from the CVS archive (GNU m4, Perl, GNU
autoconf, GNU automake, and GNU gettext, at least) are easy to install
on UNIX systems but I don't know if they'll install properly on
Windows.
