Subject: [PATCH] Touch missing userwide config file before read if it's
 missing.

Another bug introduced by James Rowe's user-config patch.  Obviously
it's hard to read a file if there's no file there.  I'm not sure how
it passed the unit tests earlier.  Maybe I forgot to install the
pre-commit version before running the test suite...  Anyhow, fixed
now.
