Ah, OK. That isn't supposed to work. The attributes are whitespace
separated, and some don't even have an equals at all (e.g., "merge",
"-merge", and "merge=foo" are all valid). So that parses to "please use
the ordinary text merge driver", and some attributes that nobody uses
called "=" and "overwrite".
