Subject:   list of install exclusions for `make world'

Hi!

What about making a user configured list (empty by default) of files
which will not be clobbered by `make world'? I think this may be
very useful feature. For example my system have some files modified
historically and so I have to have post-install script which restores
some files (tcp wrappers stuff, editors, shells)..

I'm planning to patch `install' to accept exclusions list and have
something like /etc/noclobber.conf.

What do you think?

Andrew.
