prefs file is not overwritten (specific resets for certain upgrades may be done
on specific prefs only)
plugins dir doesn't (except for server-included plugin files/paths, which are
overwritten)
skins dir doesn't (except for server-included skin paths)

other tweaks and customisations are subject to overwriting on an upgrade.  This
includes graphics and any custom perl hacks.
