In my experience tremendously useful in server farms which central CVS
controlled 'stock' configs - using things like 'depot' and symlinks; you
link in your base-line farm wide directories; your server specific ones;
map in what you do on a per functionality block. While still allowing
modularity and central management. Also - when using coda, afs or evil
things like amd - it really allows you 'boot' up a web server, or with a
graceful restart, (re)configure a virgin server without any concatenation
or editing operations on the box.
