I just went from 3.4 to 3.5 and used mergemaster for the first time. I was a
little confused and overwhelmed, but this is how I handled it and would like
others to let me know what they think:

All the files that I had made changes to personally, like personalizing my
sendmail.cf, named.conf, and inetd.conf files, I left alone. But the other
"standard" files that are a part of a basic FreeBSD install I let
mergemaster overwrite. For instance, MAKEDEV, /etc/fbtab, /etc.rc,
named.root, and such.

Does this sound reasonable?
