Hello Karl,

Perfect; here's point "a" for you. Not a direct port (as that got conflicts,
too many changes on trunk), but a manual translation with added comments.

If you want, I can commit that on trunk/, and try the points "c" and "d" also.
I'm not so sure whether "svn merge" would write the required merge-properties
in the right way (for reverse-merge "c" and forward-merge "d") - but I can
try.

(Has someone manually put merge information for the branches in the
repository, to allow automatic use of "svn merge"?)

Thank you, Karl.

Regards,

Phil
