The purpose of the *_custom.* files, as I understand it, is to prevent sites from modifying the shipped files (because if they modify the shipped files for 2.0.6, those modifications will get blown away when you upgrade to 2.0.7).

I agree in principle that reducing noise in the log files so that sites can focus on log entries of actual value. In theory it should be possible to make the Makefile install target touch *_custom.* if the target file does not exist at install time. We need a complete list of those files, of course.

Marking as "bitesize".
