Neither of those look like something that's supposed to be edited by the user, dokuwiki.php specifically says you shouldn't edit it. Dropping the php/conf.d file wouldn't be a bad idea now that open_basedir isn't default.

True, I shouldn't have edited dokuwiki.php in the first place, my oversight. Feel free to close this issue if no further action is required.
