merge --dry-run and "not under version control"

Hi,

I recently tried to merge a new upstream version already in my repo into
my working copy. First, I tried with "--dry-run" which gives

svn: Use --force to override this restriction
svn: 'filex' is not under version control

for a file to be added. This file is executable. Using --force didn't
make any difference.

The following script reproduces this. Note that the dry-run-merge works
if the "chmod" is removed. The merge with the executable file also works
without the --dry-run option.

#! /bin/sh -x

rm -fr g
mkdir g

mkdir g/tree1
echo foo1 > g/tree1/file1
echo foo2 > g/tree1/file2

cp -a g/tree1 g/tree2
echo foo3 > g/tree2/filex
chmod +x g/tree2/filex

REPO=file:///$(pwd)/g/repo

svnadmin create g/repo
svn_load_dirs -no_user_input -t u/tags/1 $REPO u/trunk g/tree1

svn -m x cp $REPO/u/trunk $REPO/trunk

mkdir g/wc
( cd g/wc && svn co $REPO/trunk )

svn_load_dirs -no_user_input -t u/tags/2 $REPO u/trunk g/tree2

( cd g/wc/trunk && svn merge --dry-run $REPO/u/tags/1 $REPO/u/tags/2)

( cd g/wc/trunk && svn st)

Environment is Debian/sid/i386 with subversion 0.37.0 (r8509).
