How could the installer possibly know which are old files and which are ones
you changed?

There is the option to back up files which are overwritten. I selected this
option but, while povray.ini was backed up, pvengine.ini, pvtools.ini and
quickres.ini weren't. I usually backed them up manually before I installed
a new version, but this time I didn't, but expected that the installation
would back them up as it indicates it will.
As for the installer knowing, other programs don't seem to have a problem
with it, whenever I install a new version of Eudora, my ini files are
maintained as they were unless they don't exist, in which case the default
one is installed.
