It would only be in danger of being clobbered in an upgrade if the files were not marked as config files in the RPM. I've had squirrellmail and mailman configs wiped out this way. The bugs were fixed in the next version as much bugzilla energy was spent on the defects.
Perhaps that they are config files may be a subject for presidential debates (wouldn't that be great? Kerry and Bush discussing the package management decisions of major Linux distributors?). However it would not be a difficult thing to ascertain if one had a Mandrake system handy. This one does not.
