A test case would really help -- the fix should actually be pretty
simple -- just ignore any merged changes to any of the svnmerge
integrated properties, and set them explicitly at the end of the merge.

This would of course prevent merge information from other "distant"
branches being merged into the current branch implicitly (the
"illusion" of graph-based merging that svnmerge.py currently
provides). Personally I consider that a feature -- since I didn't
explicitly "init" merging with that distant branch, I don't want
unrelated merge information from it cluttering up my target branch.

Cheers,
Raman
