Yes, this is a stupid bug in the message formatting code in the merge
hooks... fixed on mainline.

Workaround is to set a merger explicitly rather than let monotone pick
one, either by adding
  merger = "foo"
to your monotonerc, or by setting the environment variable
MTN_MERGE=foo.

Values for foo: meld, tortoise, vim, rcsmerge, diffutils, emacs,
xxdiff, kdiff3, opendiff
