RE: Merge Bug? no, it must be user error....I hope

I figured it out. I missed a salient nuance. I performed the merge upon
the build machine. In general the source is not modified during build,
except for the files in question. I didn't do a status or a revert prior to
the merge, so I picked up some harmless changes that led to much confusion.

So, I was right, it was user error. I'm working on a script now that will
verify that all changes have made it from my branch to my trunk and for each
change that hasn't, it will perform some light weight analysis.

Thanks for the response...

I think to be able to help, we might need a totally concrete example
(the actual revisions, the actual changes, the actual URLs, etc).
