merging advice

We recently started using merge tracking. My first attempt at updating
SVN to create all of the correct svn:mergeinfo records was somewhat
successful. I was able in the end to run a svn mergeinfo report and get
accurate info back.

But as part of all of this, I have ended up with some strange entries in
my merge-info records, for example, this is for the top of /zcode/trunk:

/repos/zcode/trunk:8*

/zcode/branches/es_zvb_reset:9521-9652*

/zcode/branches/rel_2_1:8309-9341*,9605*,9633*

/zcode/branches/rel_2_2:9342-9680*

/zcode/trunk:9-8308*,8603*,8612-8613*,8621*,8809*,8850*,8924*,9053*,9122
*,9271*

The first entry makes no sense to me as it includes the /repos part of
the path which is a directory name on the server and NOT part of the
path names in svn.

The next three lines make sense

The last line also does not make sense to me as there should be no need
to record a merge from trunk to trunk.

Should I be worried?
