I just wanted to point out if you want to know exactly where the config
files are located that your wget is using, you can run the following
command line.  This is a nice way to discover where the program expects
to look for the config file when you aren't sure what the builder
selected.

Here is an example using the Solaris supplied wget at /usr/sfw/bin/wget
on a Solaris 10 system.

# strings /usr/sfw/bin/wget | grep wgetrc
%s/.wgetrc
/etc/wgetrc
/etc/wgetrc
/etc/wgetrc
%s: Warning: Both system and user wgetrc point to %s.
  -e,  --execute=COMMAND   execute a `.wgetrc'-style command.
/ws/on10-tools/SUNWspro/SOS8/bin/cc -DHAVE_CONFIG_H
-DSYSTEM_WGETRC="/etc/wgetrc" -DLOCALEDIR="/usr/sfw/share/locale" -I.
-I../lib -I/usr/sfw/include -xO3 -xarch=v8 -xspace -W0,-Lt
-W2,-Rcond_elim -Xa -xildoff -xc99
/etc/wgetrc

As you can see, SYSTEM_WGETRC is set to /etc/wgetrc and from the first
line you can deduce that it using ~/.wgetrc for the user's config file.
