Dear Wick,
Each time you run configure.pl, it assumes that configuration has been
revised, so generates a new httpd.conf.
user directive varies from machine to machine depending how/who ran the
apache server, few permutations with apache versions, and it may not be
required in certain cases. So, we dont add it by default. If you have to
run configure several times to see how your mart looks like following
changes in DB or MartEditor exports, I would suggest you to add it to

biomart-perl/bin/ConfBuilder.pm file, stick it with other apache
directives and it will never bother you again :)

Hope this helps. Feel free to write if need further help.

cheers
syed
