Haven't seen this before, no.

What svn version is your server? If it's old, then maybe one of the many
bugfixes would solve the problem?
Another thing to consider: did you check the box "ignore ancestry" in
the last page of the merge wizard? I'm not sure, but it might affect
your situation since a rename is basically a move, and moves affect the
ancestry.
Also, if a merge shows up as successful but nothing gets merged, that
usually happens if the revisions/changes were already merged or marked
as such.
