reverse-merge broken?

Is this wrong? Or have I just somehow forgotten how reverse merges
should work?

% svn merge some://url/to/some/branch
(changes happen)
% svn ci -m"check the merge in"
(some changes get committed)
% svn up
At revision 17.
% svn merge -c-17
--- Reverse-merging r17 into '.':
(but nothing else!)
% svn stat
(nothing)

Shouldn't that merge command undo the changes that went into revision
17, leaving me with local mods (matching what I had back at r16,
before the merge and commit)?

I'm looking at a private build of r27129. (OS X, if you want to
care). The repository was created, and has only been touched by,
this same build (it's a tiny demo repo I set up for, well, a demo --
just contains the greek tree).

Happy to provide a detailed reproduction script, dump of the
repository at the outset, and all that, but thought I'd confirm that
my head's on straight first.
