It looks like that when you compare the base and tip of the branch, you
end up with a "patch" that doesn't cleanly apply to your trunk working
copy. Any idea why that's happening?

For example, the 'skipped missing targets' stuff... were those files
actually first created in the branch?

In other words, it seems that the patch generated by 'svn merge' assumes
certain paths already exist in the trunk, when in factthey don't. That
would imply that somehow that these paths were deleted from the trunk
after the branch was created, and yet the branch still changed things
within them?
