A helpful tool.
Though my opinion is that for the common cases (analog-only systems,
BRI, simple PRI setups) you should just use it and save yourself the
need to configure two and more different places.
I would like to know where it has bad defaults and where it could be
improved.

dahdi_genconf is not run automaitcally as part of the installation
procedure and should not be run automatically IMHO.
(Int also generates a .bak file for every file it generates. But this is
only useful when you run it once)

The parameters files is optional. I'm not sure I like installing sample
configuration files that later on get obsolete. But documentation there
is still badly missing.
