Definitely not. a* -> ab* is making a?* unignored for any value of ?
except b. So adding a* is definitely invalid.
So your final merge is definitely invalid. I'd say that it's likely
that the final merge is (ab*, ac*) but on the left branch the ab* could
have been chosen because the programmer added a thing named ac.c, so the
merge would still have (probably little but still some) chances to be invalid.
