So, how do we find out what is wrong? Can I simulate this on the command line and provide more info?

I've tried it with the svn:mergeinfo only on /branch1, and on /branch1/eclipseprojecta and /branch1/eclipseprojectb. In both scenarios, a multiproject merge brings back every revision and takes a loong time.
