It seems ugly to install binary programs using CONF_FILES, furthermore if
they go under PREFIX/bin, but this is IMHO.

What kind of stuff can be configured in send-pr?  Variables?  If so, it
could be good to simply add a check for a PKG_SYSCONFDIR/send-pr.conf file
and source it where needed inside the script...  thought this could be
completely non-standard (well, there is a chance that if you suggest this
to authors they will implement it ;-).
