mergemaster barf

[Mike Lempriere]

Oh, sorry, my mistake -- I had done 'make installworld' first, I just 
neglected to include it in the email.

Since that email, I tried doing another cvsup -- it added a few files, 
but not master.passwd.  Then another mergemaster -- same error.

Thanks Doug and Andrei!
