That will override the system m4s right?  Which means someone will need
to update those things from time to time.  Maintenance == bad.  Auto
updating == good.  I vote against it since no one will remember to
update that file.  Unless of course you are volunteering?  But that
means you'd have to have that stuff installed anyway.  Hmmm.
