More mergemaster errors

mergemaster -ai -m"."     fails
mergemaster -ai           works

I did something wrong in using -m"." which should be redundant since the pwd was
/usr/src.  Now that I think about it - that was the change because in
mergemaster we have

      :
 SOURCEDIR=${SOURCEDIR:-/usr/src/etc}
      :

I suspect the default used to be /usr/src and the etc was a constant. I am slow
but several 100 or so installs, I got the drill down okay
