Re: [stellation-res] Text merge test case: analysis of 13 and 14

I've fixed the bug that led to the crashes in tests 13 and
14. Now, they both run, but the results do not match the
predicted results in the merge test file. In both cases,
I believe the generated results to be correct.

In test 13:
- Delta is unmodified compared to base.
- Target totally replaces the text from base.
- The correct result is therefore identical to target. (There
  are no changes from delta to apply to target.) This
  is what the merge algorithm generates.

In test14: 
- There are changes in delta, and target replaces base
  completely. The correct result is a conflict between
  all of delta and all of target. This is what the merge
  algorithm generates.

So tests 13 and 14 appear to work correctly, but the test
file needs to be updated.
