If/when we go to the dual file method (generic include file, and
separate user-customizable file), there's no longer a reason to mark
this file as "sample".

However, i think for Unix systems, we then need three files: the
generic include file that just contains the part definitions etc., a
system-wide config file that can e. g. describe the default programmer
hardware, location of communication ports etc. for all users on that
machine, and a per-user override file (~/.avrduderc) for
personalization.

Under Windows, the latter is probably the purpose of
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE vs. HKEY_LOCAL_USER registry keys, but Eric's more
competent here.
