How can I add a number of files scattered over the directory tree?

I've a number of realted files I'd like to use svn to maintain but they are
located in widely scattered places, like /etc/ /usr/local/lib/cgi-bin,
/usr/local/etc, etc. I know I could keep copies of them in a single file
but I'd like to be able to checkout them to their proper place, or is that a
bad idea?

I could also put thim in a single directory or small tree and use make and
install to move them.

What's the best way to handle this problem?

Thanks,
Jim.
