Hi guys,

We are having quite some fun merging git branches with LibreOffice, and I stumbled over this just now with master git with hash: 00e6ee724640701b32aca27cc930fd6409c87ae2

Setup (some large repos):
	git clone git://anongit.freedesktop.org/libreoffice/libs-core
	git checkout integration/dev300_m98
	git remote add stage git://anongit.freedesktop.org/libreoffice/staging/@REPO@
	git fetch stage
	Test[1]:
	git merge stage/premerge/dev300_m98
	git diff idl/source/cmptools/lex.cxx
	yields:
@@@ -147,11 -147,7 +147,15 @@@ SvToken & SvToken::operator = ( const S
  *************************************************************************/
  void SvTokenStream::InitCtor()
  {
++<<<<<<< HEAD
 +#ifdef DOS
 +    SetCharSet( CHARSET_ANSI );
 +#else
      SetCharSet( gsl_getSystemTextEncoding() );
 +#endif
++=======
++    SetCharSet( gsl_getSystemTextEncoding() );
++>>>>>>> stage/premerge/dev300_m98
      aStrTrue  = "TRUE";
      aStrFalse = "FALSE";
      nLine       = nColumn = 0;
	With the above master hash; whereas with v1.7.3.4 it yields nothing (as
it should IMHO) - we havn't edited things around that chunk in master.
	That is slightly concerning; thoughts much appreciated. Incidentally,
the whole 'make install' installs into ~/bin was extremely unexpected
and yielded 30minutes of pain trying to work out what was installed
where and why, and the interaction with --prefix, and ... now it seems I
should always run rehash; git --version before any command, and sanity
check things ;-)
	Thanks,
		Michael.
