A solution to this issue must deal with the following use case:

A developer has made changes to Modules/Setup and is tracking these changes in 
a VCS, for example with mercurial or with a git submodule through a symlink. By 
the time he is about to pull the commit that is fixing this issue from the 
Python repository, he is also experimenting with a new modification in 
Modules/Setup that he has not commited or staged yet in his own mercurial or 
git submodule repository or whatever.

IMO a solution to this issue that overwrites the current user changes when he 
is merging the corresponding commit is not acceptable.
