The test checks the output from 'master' (merge from RCS) and 'next' (with xdl-merge) and also tries to see how different the conflicts look like. In the git.git archive, there is no "clean" merge on which 'master' and 'next' did not agree. It is not a proof of correctness at all but it gives a sense of assurance. However, the conflict 'next' leaves seems a bit suspicious. Trying to reproduce 56f9686c4d1e1d586b731b815bd98d70f84ecda4 gives an interesting illustration.
