Ok, this is strange.

I just upgraded from 7.2-prerelease (as of 20090401) to 7.2-stable
as of today, using csup and building world.

I've read this thread and find the whole thing very odd. In particular
regarding your case, the last change to mergemaster was done on March
23rd, so if you updated a system on April 1st then again on May 4th
you should have been using the same version of mergemaster.

There was a recent thread on -questions about this issue too,
with the title "mergemaster -U overwriting modified files". I've seen
mergemaster clobber named.conf but I've failed to repeat it despite
changing the revision, file timestamp etc.
