your sysconfig entries from one class are overwritten by the ones from later
classes right?
That's because the merge process works a little bit different than one would
expect. I have changed that for SLES10/10.1 for about 10 values in the
profile, so that it acts more like one would think the merging works.
sysconfig_entry is now one of this values.

it might help to configure the same sysconfig_entry multiple times in the
"early" classes. Then later classes can overwrite some of them - that's a
very ugly workaround though.
