If we assume people will use this as the starting point for their 
configuration (seems reasonable to me), then we sould at least make the 
script non-executable by itself. I don't think the code to do this will 
look too intimidating...
That way peoples configuration scripts won't be exectuable by 
themselves (if they accidentially place it in the wrong place).
