If you need to create files (like config files) outside of the

destroot phase.
I believe the (documented? defacto?) standard is that example
configuration files should be installed in destroot phase with
a .sample extension.
Uh, yes. Well the sample config file should be installed with a name
ending in e.g. ".sample" and this should be done in the destroot phase
and this file should be part of the destroot. But if you then want to
copy that sample config file to a real config file for the user to
modify, that should be done outside the destroot and outside the
destroot phase, after the port has been activated.
