I've already considered above scheme; however, it seemed that the new
appended data would overwrite previous setting in original pine.conf.
Considering following attribute/value pair already exists in
${PREFIX}/etc/pine.conf:
feature-list=prefer-plain-text,
enable-arrow-navigation,
no-enable-flag-cmd,
enable-full-header-cmd,
enable-suspend,
quell-folder-internal-msg,
quit-without-confirm
After append ${FILESDIR}/pine.conf in post-install, there would be two
"feature-list" attribute/value pair in ${PREFIX}/etc/pine.conf.
feature-list=prefer-plain-text,
enable-arrow-navigation,
no-enable-flag-cmd,
enable-full-header-cmd,
enable-suspend,
quell-folder-internal-msg,
quit-without-confirm
.
.
.
feature-list=quit-without-confirm
The later would 'overwrite' the former during Pine execution
unfortunately...

Maybe the better approach should be use '-P' to merge those changes:
${PREFIX}/bin/pine -P files/pine.conf -conf >${WRKSRC}/pine.conf
However, it seemd that above combination didn't work in current
version of Pine(I've submitted the patch to Pine dev. team hours ago, not
yet received any respond).
