It has a side effect: 

Sometimes, after experimanting and an update_home_lib(), the new generated
~/.jed/lib/ini.sl file breaks Jed. In this case I am quite happy to have
the backup copy at hand to get a working Jed again.
This is why I would rather do the backup file generation suppression in
the jed-extra initialisation code. 

Actually, I already committed the necessary changes. 
They work alongside your patch but I'd still like to leave make_ini.sl
unchanged.

Thanks

Günter
