I though I had already reported this, but I might be misremembering... :)

Nothing strange.

Everything works fine until you issue the "query" command in bconsole: 
then you'll get:

This, IMHO, is no worse than what it currently does:

I think there are two kinds of ports in the tree:
_ those who install a .sample file and no right file;
_ those who install a .sample file and copy it onto the right file in 
case it does not already exist.

Both solutions seem fine to me, while overwriting it is an anomaly.
