--- Comment #5 from Ed Maste <emaste@freebsd.org> ---
As comment #3 points out this conflict should have emitted a message and opened
an editor; this may not be particularly user-friendly, and also as comment #3
suggests we ought to check for "<<<<<<<" markers and refuse to continue until
they are addressed.

That said, this 3-way diff resolution is best addressed by having
freebsd-update use a tool (like etcmerge) rather than having built-in logic.
