>Description:
	When upgrading a machine to 9.1-PRERELEASE, mergemaster is
	painfull, because many quiete recent files are replaced with
	files with old ident.

	E.g.:

$ ident /etc/hosts /etc/shells /etc/csh.cshrc
/etc/hosts:
     $FreeBSD: stable/9/etc/hosts 109997 2003-01-28 21:29:23Z dbaker $

/etc/shells:
     $FreeBSD: stable/9/etc/shells 59717 2000-04-27 21:58:46Z ache $

/etc/csh.cshrc:
     $FreeBSD: stable/9/etc/csh.cshrc 50472 1999-08-27 23:37:10Z peter $

>How-To-Repeat:
	Check ident of many files under /etc.

>Fix:
	Force commit of these oldies.
