PATCH: prevent mergemaster from doing a "make builldworld"

I think you're going to need to describe the problem you're trying to 
solve in more detail. If you don't use make, how do you propose to create 
the temproot directory that contains the files that mergemaster is 
designed to compare? I've run mergemaster thousands of times both with and 
without a current /usr/obj, and it's never kicked off a buildworld for me. 
I just tested it a few minutes ago to confirm.

And FYI, if you end up submitting another patch please avoid gratuitous 
whitespace changes.

Doug
