You should upgrade your client to 1.5.7. There were improvements made
to reintegrate in both 1.5.5 and 1.5.6. The validity checking that is
blocking you was improved to be more intelligent and when it does
block you from using reintegrate it now gives a more detailed error
message with what you need to look at.
