[Asterisk-Users] Any way to not overwrite sound files on compile?

Couldn't you do something like say that the files localized for your
particular installation are in another language?  Just do something like 
language=enmycompanyname, copy all the standard asterisk files to your local
installation's equivalent of /var/lib/asterisk/sounds/enmycompnayname, et
voila!  No more overwriting of your files, and you get fallback behaviour to
the standard asterisk sounds as well when new, nonlocalized sounds are
included in the distribution.

Just replacing the original files in their original locations seems
incorrect; there's no reason to support that behaviour in the standard
installation.
