Just in case the fresh checkout doesn't work, then you should report
this on the svn mailing list - I'm guessing that the check for mixed-rev
wc's could be wrong here in this situation.

Also, does it work if you check the box "force the merge" ?
I think that flag should ignore mixed-rev issues and just go on with the
merge.
