Hmmm.  I just built tr...@892188 (the latest version of trunk on
12/18/2009 prior to this commit).  I redid this merge and mergeinfo
was set as expected:

  C:\SVN\src-branch-1.6.x-r891672>svn --version  -q
  1.7.0-dev

Did you commit from some directory below the root of the branch or use
some GUI that allowed you to deselect the mergeinfo change?  I'm just
trying to figure out if you've come across some diabolical bug or if
this is just pilot error.

P.S. I redid this merge using --record-only and committed the change
in r903466.  I did this for two reasons:

1) So the correct mergeinfo is set.

2) To see what impact it has on the problem Julian reported here:
http://svn.haxx.se/dev/archive-2010-01/0606.shtml and I speculated
might be related to the lack of mergeinfo from this merge.
