As far as I know this file does not *have* to exist. But it
can - in which case it gets used - such that users can have
a FreeDiams configuration different between calling
FreeDiams from GNUmed or calling FreeDiams directly.

We don't because FreeDiams can read old files.

Our read logic (now) branches depending on whether it
receives 0.5.0 or 0.6.0 input back from FreeDiams, too.
