>Description:
	The amount of ports that use: "@unexec if cmp -s %D/etc/foo.conf.sample %D/etc/foo.conf; then rm -f %D/foo.conf;
	fi" is getting quite large. I believe its about time that this be handled in a much simpler fashion. I propose
	adding 2 knobs. CONF_FILES and DEF_CONF_SUFFIX. CONF_FILES will contain files, relative to PREFIX, that should
	not be removed if they are modified from the original. Most commonly this is done with config files. We do this
	by comparing the installed .conf file with a .sample (default) version of the same file. DEF_CONF_SUFFIX is the
	suffix to use for the default configuration. In most cases this will be .sample, .dist, -dist, or .default. I
	have set it to .sample by default, as this seems to be the most common. This should not affect any currently
	installed ports, and only serves as a simpler way of get around the previous @unexec command.
