I suggest to take a good look at the changes brought by the merge.
I've discovered today that this very merge caused us to lose the Local
variables section of etc/NEWS (didn't everybody notice Emacs is
suddenly visiting NEWS in Fundamental mode?). This was certainly not
intended, so I wonder what other unintended changes we acquired
through that merge. Maybe some of the failures you see have similar
causes.
