I am miss or may be poor to descibe feature.
I see only general config merge.

What I need:

newsyslog.conf may be

1) /var/log/messages                       644  5     100  @0101T JC

-- for small system

2) /var/log/messages                       644  30    *  @T00  JC

-- for large, UFS-based system

3) /var/log/messages                       644  30    *  @T00  C

-- for large, ZFS-based system

and introducing new system type (current default move to 'small',
introducing 'ufs') will be automatic mergering and result on 'ufs'
system automatic changed 1) to 2).

introducing 'zfs' -- changed 2) to 3), decomress log.

Or, at least, use different template based on system type (need save
this information somewhere).
