What about this:
We move src/sys/${ARCH}/conf/DEFAULTS to src/sys/conf/DEFAULTS.${arch}
and we can even add a generic src/sys/conf/DEFAULTS if there's a reason
for it.
That seems to be a much better solution than renaming a file so that it
stops being in the way for some, only to have it become in the way for
others. That's just pointless...
