Much easier to automate changes (as we had nothing like postconf -e for 
changing master.cf).  If I read the patch right, you are providing a warning of 
the double entry.  Perhaps a better patch would warn and drop all but the last 
entry?
It is not the job of master(8) to edit master.cf.  Indeed that file
might reside in read-only storage.

If you meant "use only the last one", as Wietse also notes, that's the
current behaviour.

Ah, so it is my muddled reading.

I did not think that postfix should edit master.cf. Only its internal
processes would use the last entry found.
To make this abundantly clear, adding this warning does not change program 
behavior.

I did see that, and because i assumed Viktor's typo (and I am a master at making typos) was a 'new' insight (for me) into postfix that there was something more at work here.

Got it all now.

I hope.
