Over the last couple of years I have determined that it is a good
practice to rename (or delete if you want to lose all of your
customizations) any .files belonging to specefic software when you
upgrade. It allows the new stuff to settle in with the defaults and show
up any "NEW" options. Then you may compare the new .file with the old
and make any changes you want.
