No you realy don't. first it will kill performance, and there is no need
to.

Here is a solution. Have two config files -- /etc/exim/configure and
/var/exim/config/configure say. Use RCS to edit the /var/exim one and
make your changes. Once you have done the changes, call a script called
INSTALL that will test the new config and HUP the deamon for you.

It's very easy to write in python/perl/whatever...
