Why? If a file is outside the LaTeX search path, there is no reason to
keep it frozen. Actually the current LPPL explicitly gives you the
right to change a licensed file without renaming it, if you place it
outside of the LaTeX search path. It does not recommend it, but is
allowed nevertheless.

safe to eat.
