So, what's the right way to do it, then?  I tried moving the hooks to
.../imp/config/hooks.local.php so that they won't be overwritten upon
update, but then hooks.php is automatically recreated which leads to
the error that the class IMP_Hooks cannot be redeclared (as it is
present in both the automatically installed hooks.php and the
self-written hooks.local.php).
