Well, if one file sets
option1=value1

and another file sets
option1=value2

Then we don't have a guarantee as to what value of option1 will be
used.  In fact, we have no guarantee of consistency between these.
(This drives me batty with apache configuration files, when people do
things like put rewrite rules for .html in files called php.conf.....)
