Sorry for the delayed reply here. I've tested again with build 21674.

With the command line client I can do the following merge, specifying a PEG
revision and not specifying a revision range:

svn merge [URL]@N [WC]

and revisions M-N are merged for the case that a merge was previously
performed for all revisions up to revision M-1.

With the TSVN client, if I specify just a PEG revision, the message in the
merge window is:

Merging revisions 1-HEAD of URL_at_N into WC, respecting ancestry
'/repos/psi/!svn/bc/6784/Projects/Presto/Software/branches/T850-AO' path not
found

However, if I specify a revision range and a PEG revision (`1-N_at_N` in the
`Revision range to merge` text box), the merge proceeds correctly:

Merging revisions 0-N of URL_at_N into WC, respecting ancestry

If I'm looking at this correctly, it seems that in the case that only a PEG
revision is specified, the merge should be performed for revisions 0 through
the PEG revision, not 0 through HEAD.

Here is some relevant documentation from the command line client:

svn help merge

...

 '-r N:M' specifies a revision range to be merged. The difference
 between SOURCE_at_REV as it existed at revision N, and SOURCE_at_REV at
 it existed at revision M, is merged into TARGET_WCPATH. If no
 revision range is specified, the default range of 0:REV is used.
