When checkout-cache -a is run, currently it attempts to extract each existing unmerged stage to the same destination and complains to what it itself has done. This is nonsensical.
Presumably, the user is running checkout-cache -a in order to verify the result of the part that has cleanly been merged. So check out only stage 0 entries and give warnings for paths that are unmerged.
