When I ran my script against our trunk source I was able to see the

svn.core.SubversionException:

path not found", 160013)

By looking at the logs and further investigation, it was clear that
there is a bogus mergeinfo at revision "1081136".
I guess we need to remove/rectify the bogus mergeinfo.
r1081136 was some sort of --record-only merge that just modified
mergeinfo. The trunk mergeinfo change matches the log message:
That exactly is right...
Modified: svn:mergeinfo
Merged /subversion/branches/performance:r992904,1029230,1067697-1078365
but there are subtree mergeinfo changes that are harder to understand.
For subversion/libsvn_subr/svn_temp_serializer.c the change is:
Added: svn:mergeinfo
Merged
/subversion/trunk/subversion/libsvn_subr/svn_temp_serializer.c:r1067687-1072301
which refers to trunk not branches/performance, I don't think that is
correct. svn_temp_serializer.c didn't exist on trunk before 1072303, it
was created on the performance branch and merged/copied to trunk in
1072303, so that may be what caused the error.
I tried to replicate the same scenario in my dev box, yet could not
bring this suspicious mergeinfo
in place.
I have even tried to merge the "trunk" instead of the "performance"
branch. So this seems like some
sort of manually set property.
For subversion/libsvn_subr/adler32.c the change is:
Modified: svn:mergeinfo
Merged
/subversion/branches/performance/subversion/libsvn_subr/adler32.c:r1067697-1078365
which does refer to the branch but doesn't have the two early revisions
992904 and 1029230. adler32.c didn't exist in libsvn_subr before
r1054277 when it was copied from libsvn_diff.
Stefan, can you recall how you did this merge?
