No, it was a normal manual installation via net+ssh.  The only extra things I
tried were the two YaST options "export config" and "clone system" (or whatever
it is they're called).  Judging by the timestamp (2014-11-09 10:42:28) it is
from the installation time. 
Looking at that control.xml file, it looks as if it is an autoyast profile ? I
can see e.g. the <remove-packages> section corresponding to what I typically
remove. 
I can easily retry the installation on another machine, and see if one of those
two options write to that file.
