Upgrade without using mergemaster

[urello]

I upgraded my FreeBSD from 7.0 to 8.3 and forgot to run mergemaster before installed world. The machine is being used for web only (apache/php/mysql). Right now it is working fine. Could any negative consequences will be occured in future?

The standard upgrade procedure runs mergemaster -p before installworld. That's not required. Running it after installworld (without -p) is needed.
