Log:
  mergemaster: fix description of -p
  
  -p only handles updating /etc/master.passwd and /etc/group . No more,
  no less.
  
  Also, mergemaster (and no other portions of the vanilla FreeBSD build
  process) should be messing with __MAKECONF or SRCCONF as part of the
  installworld or distribution process. Don't insinuate that mergemaster
  does that as it's a false claim.
