Did you do a reintegrate of 1.1 into trunk or did you just do a tree merge?

You shouldn't need to do that. Do the merge properties on trunk show that 1.1 is merged in up to HEAD (or the latest version that 1.1 has changes in it). Are you sure there is nothing more to merge from 1.1. into 1.2?

Are you perhaps not running the merge from 1.2 at the root of trunk where all the mergeinfo about 1.1 is located?
