Merge bug -- svn:keywords and conflict resolution

I would like to confirm this issue in v 1.6.17 - using binary files via TortoiseSVN. Test scenario was to create a binary file in trunk with the "svn:keywords = Revision" property set*; branch the trunk to $BAU; change the file in $BAU (and commit); merge the change revision from $BAU back into trunk, this reported the file as a conflict (performing same on a second file without the property set worked without conflict).

* The keyword expansion is set to a fixed length in an Oracle forms file, before someone says I shouldn't use keyword expansion on a binary file !!!
