No. Some people suggested doing find ${DIR} -type f -ctime +1 -delete 
-print after an installworld & mergemaster in the appropriate places to 
get rid of stale files, that worked for me quite okay (just don't do it 
in the not-so-appropriate places...)

An increasing number of people seem to believe that and there has been 
some discussion lately, which showed that there are also a large number 
of people opposing that (for reasons that remain unclear to me).
