For /etc files, and if you use etcupdate(8), then there will be pristine 
copies of many files under /var/db/etcupdate/current or 
/var/db/etcupdate/old

However, you'ld really only use etcupdate(8) if you were installing from 
source, so you'ld also have pristine copies hiding somewhere under /usr/src.
