FreeBSD 10.2. Both 3.1.0 and 3.1.1 were built from ports. I was running Postfix 
2 when I first set up the server. I suppose it is possible I missed this 
"change" when I did the installation of 3.1.0, but not likely.

It seems to work. What do you think this would break? 

Given this was an upgrade to email, I did a full backup prior to the upgrade.

That must be a distro-specific script (different OSes have different
ways to add users, so my "original" Postfix installation procedure
doesn't try to do such things).

Again, this appears to be distro-specific. The "original"
Postfix has not obsoleted he 'virtual' configuration file.

Maybe you can reveal your OS distribution, and whether you were
building from source, from ports, or installing a pre-compiled
version. Then someone can say if you need those files.
