--- Comment #10 from Janusz Kaczmarek <januszop at gmail.com> ---
Jared, this patch does not depend on dontmerge, nor, most probably, on any
other pref.

I will try to be as straightforward as I can -- sorry if this will be too
straightforward.

First of all, the play is around biblio records. Authorities are OK. 

Now, how does you standard master Koha behave when you merge
*two*different*authority* records *from*librarian*interface* (just in case: not
from merge_authority.pl script) -- what do you see as $9 in the heading field
in *biblio* rec. that was previously linked to the authority which has just
been merged (i.e. deleted)? 

In my case it is the "old" $9 (of the merged = deleted authority) which is now
"orphaned", i.e. there is no authority record with this authid. Which is wrong.

This patch should correct this -- after applying it you should see "new" authid
in $9 (and the heading field itself should be accordingly changed).
