As a sidenote, I saw the refreshing lack of mergemaster from
upgrade instructions. I *loathe* that part of FreeBSD upgrades, dumbly
OK'ing a hundredsome one line RCS id diffs and then dumbly OK'ing a
relevant change...
There are some problems though with the fully automatic upgrade of 
/etc.
Looking back, it was well discussed in a lenghty thread on bugs@ a year
before. What's the current situation? How config file upgrade is 
handled
now?
not at all :/

*I*'m still using mergemaster, because otherwise you don't get updated 
config files (for ssh or inetd, for instance).  IMO we desperately need 
a wicked tool which do the right thing[tm].  something with three-way 
merges and stuff...
