/etc/inittab should absolutely not be packaged as such, because otherwise
setup will delete it (and may therefore destroy user configuration) at
package reinstalls/upgrades/uninstalls.
The configfile.default + postinstall script copying configfile.default to
configfile if it does not exist is a reasonably well accepted Cygwin
packaging method. Why not do that?
