 The problem is that
 
  (a) postinstall(8), which we run during an update, does not "fix" it.
  (b) formally /etc/motd is considered a user-editable file and should not
      be managed automatically.
 
 I guess we should change postinstall to recognize unmodified files (of all
 three (?) variants) and just replace them.
