It shouldn't be that likely, we're adding entries to the middle of big,
ordered tables - conflicts would be caused by something like changing
or adding adjacent entries and they're pretty trivial to resolve.  It's
not like a restructring of the code or anything.

Hedging our bets would be applying it to both trees!
