Yes, it is super-annoying (has been around since FC1T1) but I've always
assumed it's because of some automated configuration tool I may have
used once helpfully overwriting my config files with something it thinks
is right (and obviously isn't).  I haven't been able to catch the thing
in action to confirm/deny this and, if I'm right, what tool is
responsible.  When I see it again (last time was three days ago) I will
try to track it down.
