Really?

My test (sorry, not with TSVN repository) shows that reverting a merge
(a revision X which recorded svn:mergeinfo) does adjust svn:mergeinfo
correctly (set it back to the state before X) with "--ignore-ancestry".
This is what I assumed.

Do you know an actual case where my assumption fails? I'll try that.
