This is fixed on trunk.

Also on trunk is some code in the RA loader which can correct the broken
output from servers that haven't yet been fixed. This bit is proposed for
backport to 1.6.x.

This is fixed on trunk, and isn't relevant to the 1.6.x codebase.

Just to restate the original bug that led us here:

3. libsvn_client/mergeinfo.c:get_mergeinfo() passes
    (RA-session-rooted-at-some-relpath, relpath) to an underlying API
    where it should be passing (RA-session-rooted-at-some-relpath, "").

This is fixed on trunk, and proposed for backport to 1.6.x.

Currently, the 1.6.x-3242-partial-fixes branch passes all four RA layers and
JavaHL tests for me.
