I have changed the wording of the NEWS.Debian file:
update-exim4.conf looks for commented UPEX4CmacrosUPEX4C (which
used to be the place marker in earlier 4.67-x versions) and barfs
if it finds them anywhere in /etc/exim4/exim4.conf.template or
recursively /etc/exim4/conf.d. This check - as a feature - also
includes files that would normally be excluded by update-exim4.conf.
