That's not true, I just tried to reproduce.

If a file is in conflict, and has three fulltext files lying around, and
then you run 'svn up' again and receive *another* conflict, you end up
with 6 fulltext files lying around. The original '.mine' file isn't
deleted or overwritten or touched at all; svn just creates a new .mine
file with a slightly different prefix:

$ svn st
? eyemodule.py.r2
? eyemodule.py.r3
? eyemodule.py.r4
? eyemodule.py.2.mine
? eyemodule.py.2.r3
? eyemodule.py.mine
C eyemodule.py

...notice that I now have 'eyemodule.py.mine', was was the original file
before the first conflict, as well as 'eyemodule.py.2.mine', which is
the file after the first conflict, but before the second conflict. No
data loss.
