In <http://lists.gnu.org/archive/html/bug-rcs/2007-01/msg00001.html>,
there is a patch for merge.1, but i believe it is not optimal, in the
sense that it hardcodes a value instead of providing a definition for
the missing macro.

Please find attached an updated one.  A suitable ChangeLog entry:

2010-02-10  Thien-Thi Nguyen  <[email protected]>

        * merge.1: Fix syntax errors: (1) define string `r';
        (2) add list element separator between -q and -V entries.

Happy hacking,
thi
