>Release:        FreeBSD 2.2.6-RELEASE i386
>Environment:

	Upgrading 2.2.1 release system to 2.2.6

>Description:

	Upgrade of a 2.2.x system clobbers the profile files
	(~root/{.cshrc,.login,.profile} perhaps others)

>How-To-Repeat:

	Customize ~/.cshrc, then upgrade

>Fix:
	
	Save off ~/.root files which will clobbered and then restore
	them.  Or just rename ~root for the duration of the upgrade
	and then put it backs, since this directory should not need
	additional files.
