I don't think this label accurately describes the intended case of this test.
Personally I think it is better to add mergeinfo on the TC-victim then to *add* non-inherital mergeinfo to both the direct ancestor *and* inheritable mergeinfo to *all* siblings, which is usually the only alternative. ("The least nodes with mergeinfo, the better")
The label would say me that this is a problem we are checking, while you are really checking to see if a reintegrate would work.... Or at least that is what the log message says.
We should try to avoid mixing wanted/expected behavior ("reintegrate merge doesn't work") with the implementation details ("unexpected svn:mergeinfo") here.
If reintegrate is really the problem, I'm missing the reasoning why the test is added to mergeinfo_tests.py, as there is also a merge_reintegrate_tests.py.
