I suspect it's related to this TODO from rerere.c::handle_cache:

        /*
         * NEEDSWORK: handle conflicts from merges with
         * merge.renormalize set, too
         */
        ll_merge(&result, path, &mmfile[0], NULL,
                 &mmfile[1], "ours",
                 &mmfile[2], "theirs", NULL);

But if someone has time for it, rather than plumbing in a useless
parameter that goes nowhere, it would be better to add tests as a
reminder of what is unimplemented. :)

Thanks,
Jonathan
