Yes there is, especially on upgrades.  On initial installs, 
install-configure copies all configfilename.dist files to configfilename, 
which you have to do anyway.  On upgrades, install-configure adds any new 
settings to configfilename, and removes any obsolete settings. 

Since install-configure was implemented, I don't recall seeing a single 
upgrade-related configuration issue.
