I did run into a conflict, where master had deleted a Makefile target, and
emacs-25 had added a target. I had thought incorrectly that master was right.

This will continue to be a danger while I'm still not as familiar with the
code as I need to be to know the right resolutions. What I can do is consult
first with the commit authors when I run into conflicts that are not obvious.

That should be the only misfire on this merge. The other changes were simpler,
and there were few conflicts.
