What is your svn client?

SVN 1.8 (TortoiseSVN 1.8) did not update those mergeinfos when I did a merge.
But it updated them when I did a "record only" merge.

Anyway I do not know of any harm from those mergeinfos. Both reverting
and non-reverting are OK with me.

BTW, TortoiseSVN released an update yesterday. (HTTPS clients such as
svn are vulnerable to heartbleed from rogue servers).

Best regards,
Konstantin Kolinko
