I have tried it and can at least say that it has caused no problems to 
me. Upgraded from 4.6-RELEASE to RELENG_4_6. Mergemaster notified me 
that /etc/uucp and some uucp-related scripts in /etc/periodic/ exist 
only on old system so I deleted these once the upgrade was complete.

I still left the uucp user and group intact, though.
