That surprised me a little, but a quick test with current trunk[1]
confirms:

% cd ~/src/svn/16x/
% $svn merge -c N ../trunk
...
% $svn pg -vR svn:mergeinfo . | grep Properties
Properties on '.':
Properties on 'subversion/tests/cmdline/merge_tests.py':
Properties on 'CHANGES':
% $svn st -q
 M .
M subversion/include/svn_client.h
C subversion/tests/cmdline/export_tests.py
C subversion/svn/export-cmd.c
M subversion/libsvn_client/export.c
% $svn st -q | egrep 'CHANGES|merge_tests'
%

Nice.

build these days.
