The file's content _IS_ the point, since that is what makes it different
from others, right?
AFADSI (As Far As Diff See's It) it's just cosmetic changes, so that
doesn't make the old one any less or more distro specific.

No. Some distributions use a different file (not contributed to us
AFAICT) or put it in a different place.
It's irrelevant to the point if it's contents are the best or if it's
placed in the best place. The changes are 100% cosmetic.
I can just move the new file to the other (I have nothing against the
cosmetic changes), if that's the problem.
If _there_is_another_point_ that makes it distribution specific, please
tell us what's wrong and how to change it :)
Hugs, Rui
