If you don't use make, how do you propose to create the temproot directory that contains the files that mergemaster is designed to compare? I've run mergemaster thousands of times both with and without a current /usr/obj, and it's never kicked off a buildworld for me. I just tested it a few minutes ago to confirm. And FYI, if you end up submitting another patch please avoid gratuitous whitespace changes. Doug -- This .signature sanitized for your protection
