e7304e7515 Stop scaring people with impossibly vague comments about lack of 
standards compliance when routing.  Listing specific issues would be
useful, but compliance with all relevant standards is neither feasible
nor desirable.

19117e0f37 Describe when it may be necessary to run mergemaster before 
'make buildworld'.  In rare cases, mergemaster may need to be
run twice: one time before buildworld (to update /etc/group
or any other files required for a successful buildworld) and
one time after installworld (to merge all the src/etc updates
to the /etc directory of the system).

Point to /usr/src/UPDATING for details of when and why this
is necessary.

Hopefully, this will reduce the potential for confusion when
users read about mergemaster in the Handbook.

ec76c98c51 Matt Storer <mstorer at gmail dot com> pointed out the misuse of the 
word "defiantly" here.  I decided to get rid of it rather than correct
it, and noticed some other parts of the surrounding paragraph required
work.  In summary:

o Correct misuses of "defiantly" and "delimited"
o Add the class attribute to directory names
o Fix some grammar bogons
