I ran the subrange test with the command-line client. The merging was
noticeably slower, and about 5 minutes it ended in the same error as above.
The only difference was that the command-line version did not restart the
merge; instead, it failed right after the 27th submerge. Maybe TSVN is
trying some other merge approach when failing, causing the restart?
I've reported the problem to the SVN dev list.

Will do. Might to couple of days, as I'm occupied with other things
tomorrow.
Kari.
