People who have trouble reading master.cf should not run Postfix
chrooted, period. This is why chroot must be off by default.

Aside from that, why have master.cf configuration information in
a logfile? Why not in postconf output? The same logic could apply
as with main.cf, i.e. postconf -nM shows non-default settings in
the master.cf file.
