I do.

Ok, so I don't whine (about that :). I try and find out what broke,
and get into shape again. But maybe I haven't updated in 2-3 weeks,
and I can't remember all the "/etc/pam.conf"'s that went into the tree
since last time. It would be real handy with a "make check_etc" which
would list files missing, and (based on the RCS id and/or change dates)
what files have been updated, or which users/groups have been
added/removed.

That would be real nice to do before or after you make world, just to
remind you of what you must look at updating.
