Sorry, what? Subversion will suddenly error out where it previously did
not. No matter /how/ that mergeinfo got into the repository, if we don't
fix this before releasing 1.6.7, we'll likely get a whole bunch of error
reports. Telling people that "it's not really a bug" isn't going to be
very productive, given that it effectively stops them from using svn
merge in this situation.

Can you be sure that the circumstances that lead to this error are rare
enough to address in 1.6.8?
