 Using the disk image installer to install MacPorts 1.9.0-rc1 over the top
 of MacPorts current 1.8 it looks like my
 <prefix>/etc/macports/sources.conf was overwritten by the installer.

 Installing MacPorts 1.9.0-rc1 from source over the top of MacPorts
 1.9.0-rc1 <prefix>/etc/macports/sources.conf was not overwritten.

 In my searches I could not determine the expected behavior.
