Why does merge skip files?!?

I searched the archive for answers on this one, but it seems like
everyone else who has been having this problem has been comparing a
branch against the trunk. I don't think I'm making that same
mistake, but I'm obviously doing something wrong!

gre7g@7[4732]$ svn --version
svn, version 1.2.3 (r15833)
   compiled Oct 5 2005, 12:26:18
<snipped>

The original branch was made quite a while ago. The changes are now
quite extensive.

gre7g@7[4732]$ svn log --stop-on-copy branches/dummy | tail -n 8
r32 | gre7g | 2005-08-15 21:23:09 -0600 (Mon, 15 Aug 2005) | 5 lines

Branched trunk to dummy at revision #31.

Now I can safely add in code to supply dummy data in the absence of a
data acquisition card.

---------------------------------------------------------------------

I've never merged this branch back, so I want to take all the changes
from 32:HEAD in dummy and add them into trunk. It seems like I
should type:

gre7g@7[4732]$ svn merge -r32:HEAD branches/dummy trunk
Skipped 'trunk/test1/test1'
U trunk/test1/test1.c
Skipped 'trunk/test1/emulator'
Skipped 'trunk/test1/emulator.c'
U trunk/test1/Makefile
A trunk/web_server
A trunk/web_server/source
Skipped 'trunk/web_server/source/export.cgi'
Skipped 'trunk/web_server/source/ipaddr.c'

<snipped>

Why is it skipping these darn files? If I do this merge on my
Windows box with TortoiseSVN, it merges just fine, but I really want
to do the development on my Linux box. Grrr.

Does anyone know what I'm messing up? I haven't even changed the
trunk since I made the branch. I could just move branches/dummy back
to trunk, but I really want to understand this so when I get to a
project with other developers then I will not mess anything up.
