Hmm, in the fullness of time, I'd like to warn if templates under
/etc/e-smith/templates have been modified - they shouldn't
be. Checking this is somewhat expensive to do during template
expansion :-)
While examining each fragment in /etc/e-smith/templates:
Is this file owned by an RPM?
Yes - warn if modified
No - ignore and warn

And while we're at it, RCS/, CVS/ and SCCS/ in case anyone puts their
templates-custom under version control.
