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

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).
