"Unreadable path encountered" running svn merge --reintegrate

I am trying to use the svn merge tracking in the SVN 1.6.11 client
(server is running 1.6.4).

I am getting this error when I try to reintegrate back into my trunk:

svn: Unreadable path encountered; access denied

I can do any other type of merge with no problem, just the -reintegrate
is giving me this problem.

Here is the sequence of commands I ran. My working copy was originally
checked out from ^/project1/trunk.

cd working_copy

svn copy ^/project1/trunk ^/project1/branches/bugfix

svn switch ^/project1/branches/bugfix

<edit some files>

svn commit -m "message"

svn merge ^/project1/trunk

<note: no files needed merging - no changes had been done on the trunk
since the copy>

svn switch ^/project1/trunk

svn merge -reintegrate ^/project1/branches/bugfix .

Any idea what's causing this problem with -reintegrate?
