Why not, Gavin?

Those of us who've been using Sendmail for ten years or more have been
modifying sendmail.cf for many years.  Cobalt modifies sendmail.cf, too,
as you can see with this command on a RaQ4:

$ ls -al /etc/mail/sendmail.cf*

and this command on a RaQ3:

$ ls -al /etc/sendmail.cf*

In fact, I'd bet that when Cobalt modifies sendmail.cf through an
upgrade they don't bother to fix the underlying M4 files.  Am I wrong?
