This is a bit problematic in that we don't do this normally when running
setup.py and leave this to 'packagers'. Having people running pip or
whatever start clobbering these files is probably bad.

On the other hand, it's okay for the packages to install these files if
it's appropriate in that environment, because Debian partly
manages /etc. However, they also make an effort to never overwrite these
files if they've been customized, because they're "owned" by the user.
And I suspect setup.py's support for doing that right is negligible?
