Sure. Doing that right now. What's fun is that it doesn't reproduce
with diff3-test:

$ ~/src/svn/subversion/tests/libsvn_delta/diff3-test build_neon.bat.release \
                                                     build_neon.bat.5007 \
                                                     build_neon.bat.5008 \
>merged

$ grep '<<<' merged
[no output]

So this is something that goes wrong in svn_wc_merge apparently...
I'll investigate some more.
