	Nope; there are thousands of conflicts; a subset of these are (I would
like to think ;-) erroneous; but I'm picking out individual files with
problems that I can repeat easily and that have (I hope) simple history
to try to isolate the problems for you.

	Builds of what ? git - no; LibreOffice - sure, it builds before the
merge - and then there is a huge slew of work to do to make it build
afterwards ;-) but then that is not so suprising.

	Anyhow - thanks for looking at it; can you replicate the suprising
result in that file: ucb/source/ucp/ext/makefile.mk ? what does
'refusing to loose untracked file' mean in that context ?

	Thanks,

		Michael.
