Even though it is not a 1.6.1 regression, I wonder about the merge conflict issue in

 http://thread.gmane.org/gmane.comp.version-control.git/100859/focus=101182

The patch in that post improved things somewhat, by making a correct commit. Of course, the working tree then silently loses a file, which could be seen as being worse than a fatal failure.
