Merge result inconsistency

Tortoise 1.6.2
The symptom is:
BranchA - working copy in a directory as a clean checkout.
BranchB being merged on to working copy.
Select a range of revisions for the merge and accept the default merge type.
Conflicts arise during the merge and are resolved.

New clean checkout of BranchA in a different directory.
Merge BranchB except this time, select the revisions one at a time beginning with the oldest.
All merges succeed with no conflicts.

Using a directory compare program, compare the two working copies. The contents are different for some files.

Is the merge algorithm different for range merges than for individual revision merges?
