Hello!

One more question about pine4 port:

When I compiled and installed pine4 ports from sources
it rewrote the system-wide /usr/local/etc/pine.conf without any
warning.
Usually, other ports/packages (e.g. wu-ftpd, apache, ..) 
just copy file.conf.example or file.conf.default into the target 
directory without overwriting the existing conf file.

Somebody might suggest to use /usr/local/etc/pine.conf.fixed 
which is not rewritten by the installation script.
It's possible, but the options which are in pine.conf.fixed
can not be overwritten by the users, while I'd like to have some
default options in /usr/local/etc/pine.conf that an experienced
user may reconfigure for himself.
