I symlinked /etc/ppp to /usr/ppp and mergemaster updated fine. I then removed
/usr/ppp making the symlink invalid and mergemaster overwrote the bad symlink
with ppp.conf. Is there any chance when you ran mergemaster that one time
your /home was not mounted?
I haven't gone as far as to find just what the offending area of mergemaster
is.
