Most of the merge troubles were in the FactoryFinder.java
and XxxxFactoryFinder.java files - the merge was a bit difficult because 
some lines had changes in both parent and child - like
method signature where a <?> had been added to the return type
in the child and a new argument had been added in the parent.

In transform/FactoryFinder I had removed a boolean from the
newInstance(...) methods - and that caused a merge issue too
which had to be resolved carefully.
(originally requested by Mandy who noticed that the method
  was always called with the same boolean value - and therefore
  did not need that boolean has argument).

Merge in the other files was otherwise trivial.
