Responding to a year-old thread. I just tried this by showing the log
for a file I know has a lot of merges. In the log dialog check the
"include merged revisions" box so that merge sources that svn knows
about show up in grey. Right click on a revision that has a greyed
source below it and "Blame..." taking the text file option or "Blame
changes". The resulting output shows the merged revision in both
columns for lines affected by that merge.
