Unfortunately I also propogated this fallacy (not needing mergemaster -p) as well. I'm rerunning a build with nanobsd on my 9/stable workstation, as I ran into problems in the last go-around with the user/group being missing, but we'll see if I run into it again (seems like we should have a slightly more intelligent mechanism for dealing with this issue in the build system itself instead of mergemaster).
