Sorry about that.  Some maintainers will just send a "heads up" email
with a suggested resolution patch (but I don't get very many).  That
can be very helpful for complicated (or non obvious) conflicts.  I
still generally look at how to fix them myself (and report them), but
it can save me considerable time in particularly obscure cases.
