While mergemaster is running there are following symbolic links under
/var/tmp/temproot.

root at rolling-vm-freebsd1[2009]# LANG=C find -s /var/tmp/temproot -type l -ls
 10750        1 lrwxr-xr-x    1 root                             wheel         
                        12 Nov 25 17:20 /var/tmp/temproot/etc/aliases ->
mail/aliases
 11922        1 lrwxr-xr-x    1 root                             wheel         
                        21 Nov 25 17:20 /var/tmp/temproot/etc/os-release ->
../var/run/os-release
 11921        1 lrwxr-xr-x    1 root                             wheel         
                        15 Nov 25 17:20 /var/tmp/temproot/etc/rmt ->
../usr/sbin/rmt
 11845        1 lrwxr-xr-x    1 root                             wheel         
                        23 Nov 25 17:20 /var/tmp/temproot/etc/termcap ->
/usr/share/misc/termcap
 10747        1 lrwxr-xr-x    1 root                             wheel         
                        14 Nov 25 17:20 /var/tmp/temproot/etc/unbound ->
../var/unbound
root at rolling-vm-freebsd1[2009]#

So I removed following symbolic links and then ran mergemaster.

/etc/aliases
/etc/os-release
/etc/rmt
/etc/termcap
/etc/unbound

But none of them were installed. This means mergemaster doesn't install
symbolic links even if they don't exist.
