The automatic merge usually deals with ignoring completely identical
changes, so they're not generally a problem.  If the code actually has to
be different for the trunk and v5-10 then there will be a conflict, but
I'll usually just notice that it's essentially the same code, and drop the
merge for that hunk -- which is easier than actually having to fix the code
myself!

So far it hasn't been much of a problem; as usual (see my previous post...)
the main annoyance is ChangeLogs:  I try to eliminate redundant ChangeLog
entries, but often this takes searching around.

The main thing that would help me is if when you install in both places,
try to make sure the ChangeLog text is _identical_, as much as possible.

Thanks,

-Miles
