While I was preparing a patch for this, Kamesh and I found an issue in
current implementation. When a deleted target has unmerged changes in
it, mergeinfo command does not detect it.

For example, consider the attached script. The b1/ is a copy of trunk,
the change r5 in b1/ is not merged to trunk, and b1/ got deleted in r7.
When we run mergeinfo on trunk, it just prints "(source no longer
available in HEAD)" and it does not detect the unmerged change r5 in b1.
