svn merge question

I've pulled down r27167 of trunk (the latest as of last night) to
check out the new merge-tracking features. I am using the
merge-tracking early adopter repository for my tests at the moment and
I ran into an issue that confused me:

* I'm in /branches/d that I created from r8 of /trunk.
* 'svn mergeinfo' tells me r0:8 are merged and r8:23 are available for merge.
* 'svn merge <repo path>/trunk' to merge all the available changes
(this is the correct usage right?) and it tells me "merging r2 through
r23 into '.'".

That makes me a little confused, I would expect it to say "merging r8
through r23" since r8:23 were the available revisions. So I look at a
long on /trunk and see there is r2, r6, and r8. r2 is a normal commit,
r6 is a merge from /branches/a and r8 blocks r7 from /branches/a.

Is this a feature or a bug? :)

Note that I am using svnmerge.py right now so maybe there is a
different usage mode.
