Yes, that's strange, isn't it ;-)  The reason for this is that building 
the tarball also creates several generated files, which cannot be done 
that easily directly inside the Android build system.  These files are 
generated by bison/flex, gperf and some contain variables replaced with 
sed (the top Android.mk for instance).  Anyway, you can actually do this 
without explicitly building a tarball, right within the strongSwan 
source tree.  Please run the following commands:

   ./autogen.sh
   ./configure
   make
   make distclean

This result in a tree similar to an unpacked tarball.

Regards,
Tobias
