The correct way out of this mess is what had been said before on numerous
occasion: stable/security/quarterly branches should be operated by ports-
secteam@ or however it's called, not by the individual committers.  This
would solve *all* the problems of what and how to merge because dedicated
team would know better and coordinate its action only within itself.
