INN ports deinstall config files

[David Taylor]

I've noticed (unfortunately) that running ``portupgrade inn'' does bad
things(tm) to installed config files.  They get deleted in the pkg_delete,
then blank files are installed by inn.  Inn does create backups (I think)
of config files when it's installed into a previously used directory, but
even then, it'd be nice if the config files weren't replaced with defaults
which probably won't work.

I can't see an easy way to install all the config files as (say)
foo.conf.dist or whatever, but that's the best alternative I can see (and
seems to be how other ports deal with it).  They definately shouldn't be
listed in pkg-plist, IMO, though, since portupgrade --all should
definately not erase all config files installed on the machine :)
