Now that I think about it, this sort of makes sense. Of course, the
diagnostic message is horrible.

But branches/progwrap didn't exist in r1054. So it makes somewhat sense
that this should fail. Instead I should have done:

svn merge https://XXX/svn/sh/sh/trunk@1054 https://XXX/svn/sh/sh/branches/progwrap

which I just did and which worked just fine.

So whether this is just another dumb user (me) or whether maybe the
diagnostic message should be improved is up to you.
