It is a temporary holding place. The startup script cannot pass the
information because we are wrapping the openfire startup script.
The plugin reads it from a "well known" place. The wrapper to the startup
script, (i.e. script that invokes the actual openfire script) places some
information there. It is only relevant from the point of startup to the
point where the plugin begins execution. It provides the root of the sipx
install to the startup portion of the plugin. After that it can be safely
deleted.
It can be SIPX_CONFDIR but how can we pass the location of SIPX_CONFDIR to
that plugin? It could be either /etc/sipxpbx or /usr/local/sipx/etc/sipxpbx
