 *   The wildcard removal of config files in post-install was removing
 *   all config files rather than just the old default files.

Um, a post-install target has no business removing files in the
installation directory.  Why is it doing this in the first place?

Also, with a wildcard like "access.conf.*" (which is still better than
"access.conf*" of course ;), it's going to remove backup files users
specifically made, etc.

For instance, I create a backup called "access.conf.org" and
"access.conf.new" so that I can easily diff them and merge my changes
to the new version.  I'm going to be mighty upset if the port deletes
these files, and I'm sure I'm not the only one.
