I think the commit message explains this pretty well, but I wanted to give a heads up message because this is very likely to ring a few bells the first time through. I personally noticed it as result of the recent termcap change, and I'm sure I'm not the only one with stale stuff in /etc/ in particular.
Please make sure that you employ (what should be) the usual precaution of backing up /etc before running this version of mergemaster. I also encourage regular use of the -P option (or PRESERVE_FILES=yes in ~/.mergemasterrc or /etc/mergemaster.rc) however while I believe that this new code is -P safe backing up /etc first is preferred this time around.
