Comment (by Thomas Jachmann <thomas.jachmann at mindmatters.de>):

 I don't know the code or have enough insight to judge what happens inside,
 but it seems to write all available settings (whether read from local or
 global trac.ini) to the local file. At least that is what happens on my
 0.9.2 installation. This makes the feature of a global trac.ini rather
 useless. You'll have a local copy of the global trac.ini as soon as you
 change something like the default component using WebAdmin. Further
 changes of the global file will be ignored since they're overwritten with
 the old values locally.
