Hello Felix,
The biggest problem is that after changing around, I thought it all works well and did not do any backups of how my style-file worked before until realising the mess. 1498 and upwards if !=* is not working 100% correct, is simply unusable. This was a real degradation. Now I will need to spend hours trying to get a working style-file for 1497 again if soon>1500 is not getting correct behaviour again.
I can't believe you don't have your style files under version control.
It's so easy with any of the "modern" SCM programs (e.g. bazaar, hg, git) - you don't have to make a separate repo like you do with old-fashioned SCM systems (cvs, svn). Just go to the directory/folder that contains the files you want to put under version control and say:
hg/bazaar/git init
Then you can start committing changes. It's a no-brainer.

Yeah, I should have done so. I was allways to lazy to set it up. I got both Bazar and TortoiseSVN setup anyhow, to apply patches. But never used it for local files. Till now I kept good track myself of the changes and did once a week backups. Just with the latest changes I thought it will be an easy change until I had thrown all around and noticed that since the mp merge my styles simply output rubbish.
