If you run autoconf locally (which I think is good practice), and you
did not use the same version as the person who last committed
configure, you WILL get a conflict when you update. Eg

http://debbugs.gnu.org/cgi/bugreport.cgi?bug=6428
http://debbugs.gnu.org/cgi/bugreport.cgi?bug=6536

I update and build my local copy of Emacs with a script, and I run
`bzr revert --no-backup configure src/config.in'
before `bzr pull/up' (and later `autoconf') to avoid this problem.

But we cannot make everyone who checks out Emacs from bzr use said
plugin.
