Indeed, the only way I can think of to try and make sure such undesired
merges don't happen is to try and encode this fact into a merge script.
Having such a merge script is a good idea in any case since it can help
resolve the ChangeLog conflicts as well (they tend to require a lot of
work, but most of it can be automated).
